There are 2 types of error.  Intuit marks the date in red and labels it in error if not a date in 2022.

IRS rejects a return that does not have a 2023 date. We do NOT care what Intuit says since IRS is the definitive one.  So put in the real date. Save and exit the return to go to Efile Center homebase. Select the return and unmark "error checking by Intuit" as the last step to convert & transmit.  IRS will get the return and accept it.
