Error 1094: "Form 1040 - When Filing A Community Property..." When E-filing

Here's the complete error message:

"Form 1040 - When Filing A Community Property State Return is significant, the Allocation Record must be present and the Filing Status equals "3", the State Abbreviation must equal one of the following states: AZ (Arizona), CA (California), ID (Idaho), LA (Louisiana), NM (New Mexico), NV (Nevada), TX (Texas), WA (Washington) and WI (Wisconsin) and vice versa."

When trying to e-file your tax return, you may get this error message if:

  • You had a previous mailing address in a state that is not a community property state
  • AND you are filing Married Filing Separately

Resolution

These returns cannot be e-filed. You'll need to file a paper return.
