"Disaster tax relief. Recent legislation contains special rules that provide for tax-favored withdrawals from and repayments to certain retirement plans (including IRAs) for taxpayers who suffered economic losses as a result of certain major disasters that occurred in 2018, 2019, and early 2020. See Disaster-Related Relief , later, for information on these special rules. Also see the Instructions for Form 8915-C, Qualified 2018 Disaster Retirement Plan Distributions and Repayments, and the Instructions for Form 8915-D, Qualified 2019 Disaster Retirement Plan Distributions and Repayments, for more information on these special rules."

Amend 2018 return

Thank you for the information. I have been holding off on filing 2019 till July 15 and I would like to amend my 2018 to reflect the disbursement. If this form is just in draft and wont be available for a few months what am I to do? I may have to go to a tax preparer.

Amend 2018 return

I suggest you file an extension for the 2019 return ... that will give you until 10/15/2020 to file ... hopefully by then the form will be operational.
