The message DO NOT FILE or DO NOT FILE, FORM NOT FINAL will appear on your printout if:

  • The print version of the tax form hasn't yet been finalized in TurboTax.
  • Your federal return was printed before e-filing.
  • Your state return was printed before your federal return was accepted by the IRS.
  • The form is available but you haven't downloaded the latest update.

The estimated payments forms will not be functional until 2/17 ... first payment is not due until 4/18 so if you want to pay earlier you can use the watermarked form  or  pay online directly www.IRS.gov/pay
