Originally they did change the code and then walked it back to include the 2022 tax year so the programming department simply missed that late change ... it was an error that they will fix. They just need the time ... this is not the only issue they have to work on ... there were many other fed/state forms that were still being worked on at the same time. Everyone here thinks that they had nothing else to do and they should drop everything else just to work on this one issue. I am sure someone or a team of people were tasked with this situation but as I mentioned in my other post this one "simple" fix affects other parts of a very intricate program. So do you want this done quick or done right ?
Some folks ask why the income tax program put out early in Nov/Dec is incomplete and partialy functional ... one is because folks ask for it, it helps to "grab market share" from a marketing perspective, but the best answer is so that all you eager beavers who pouce on the early program are really the unpaid beta testers who find errors in the program. And this issue with the 8962 only came to light when the 1095-A forms were available online 1/4 and some of you higher income folks started to notice the error and posted about it. Interesting that I saw no postings in this forum on this issue until then. So now the issue is known and will be addressed but it will take time.
