Why can't I refile my 2008 tax return with turbo tax after error corrected?

Does anyone have this problem? I filed my return online with turbo tax deluxe and it was rejected because I had an error (Employer ID #). Well i corrected the number error and tried ti refile it but it says that now I have to do it by mail. I called turbo tax and they say the same thing. WHY!!!! I've done my taxes and other ppl taxes and I had an error or 2 but was able to correct it and refile it. This year I'm getting a big headache. Well went to Tax-cut and I filed it there and it was approved and will be getting my refund on the 10th. But just wanted to know did anyone have to go through this. Thank you very much.

    Turbo tax is wrong. You can resubmit and e-file. I know this because I work in the tax software industry, but not for Turbo tax.

    I had to file amended taxes thru Turbo tax (used them for the original tax filing also) last year -- but it just printed out the forms for me to mail. It would not file the amended online. I'm not sure why this was so, but there was no way around it that I could find. It was annoying because the amended taxes meant I got more of a refund, so I had to wait forever to get the additional refund.
