Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hi, I can answer calls on my ipad but cant make outgoing calls. I’m getting the message
iPhone Calls Not Available
Your iPhone must be signed
in with the same Apple ID
for FaceTime and iCloud to
make phone calls from this
iPad.
I have tried everything for hours. I did also set wifi callings by my carrier. This is a bug.
I bought the ipad to easily make calls from it. Its a mini 6 and the phone is iPhone 8.
Appreciate your help,
Auy
iPad mini 6, iPadOS 15
Until you have resolved the FaceTime activation issue, you’ll not be able to properly (if at all) make or receive calls with your iPad.
If you can’t turn on or sign in to iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support

If you are experiencing difficulties making Calls from iPad via your linked iPhone or WiFi Calling, it may be necessary to first fully disable both Wi-Fi Calling and Calls on Other Devices on the linked iPhone.
Settings > Mobile Data >
Temporarily disabling FaceTime on both iPad and iPhone is also recommended:
Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime - set to OFF
Next, force restart your iPhone and iPad:
Force restart iPhone - Apple Support
Force restart iPad - Apple Support
After both iPhone and iPad have been restarted, re-enable FaceTime on both devices - allowing a few minutes for the service to fully reactivate on both devices. Now re-enable Calls on Other Devices on your iPhone - then re-enabling Wi-Fi Calling on iPhone. It may take many minutes for your carrier to re-enable Wi-Fi calling services; be patient.
Finally, on iPad, re-enable Calls from iPhone:
FaceTime > Calls from iPhone > Calls from iPhone - set to ON

Thank you, I did it all. they are on the same network, and I can answer calls on my ipad but I cant make outging calls.
Thank you both for your kind help. LotusPilot I have done all the steps, and still no go. When I activate facetime on the phone it says
FaceTime activation
An error occurred during activation. Try again
But afterword this massage it seems to work fine. Just no outgoing calls from the ipad, with the same message on the ipad as before.
Im clueless.
Thank you,
Guy
You need to use the iPad's FaceTime app and make FaceTime audio calls.
