Solution

  1. Go to
    Tax Forms
    States
    Virginia
    Apportionment Forms
    500, Sch A - Multistate Corporation
    .
  2. Make sure lines
    3e
    and
    3f
    aren't negative or blank.
    note
    If line 3f is negative and you can't change the value, you need to paper file the return. Per Virginia state instructions, Schedule 500A, Section B, lines 3e and 3f can't be negative or left blank. If your return requires a negative value on line 3f that can't be corrected, electronic filing isn't supported and you need to submit a paper return.
  3. Do a full recompute, then recreate the e-file.
