When will the Form 8283 get updated, received an error message that the form has not been approved for release at this time. I tried to update and still receiving.

I tried updating everyday, starting 2 weeks ago and still receiving the same error. Wants me to add the entity if different than above, which above is correct, so not sure what to put or why this is happening. Need help so I can file my return, it is the only thing that is coming up in the smart error scan. thank you

According to the Forms Availability Table below, the Form 8283 is currently scheduled to become available for filing on 2/13/2025.    Dates are subject to change.   Weekly TurboTax updates typically occur on a Thursday.

@lkosborne   Ooops!   I mistakenly typed the wrong year 2024 above, when I meant 2025.  I've since corrected it.  Sorry about that.

The Forms Availability Table was updated today and shows the Form 8283 is now scheduled to become available in TurboTax  sometime tomorrow on 2/05/2025 unless there is further delay.   I don't know if they are pushing a special out-of-cycle update.   The routine weekly update day this week would be 2/06/2025.  So they may be pushing that form out a day early before the weekly update.

Hello, is there a new date for release? I tried filing today and it stated I would need to file by mail, don't want to do that- any updates?

Form 8283 is available to Efile.  If you're getting a message to mail your return, try re-entering your donations and breaking them apart, with no one totaling over 5K.  There have been new rules regarding reporting on the 8283 that are probably affecting you.
