When will the software update take place? If we haven't filed but have completed all other steps, will there be additional steps that users will need to do to make the update effective? I currently have completed filling in all the info but have been waiting to file until I saw the outcome of the bill.
After the legislation has passed Congress and after the President has signed the legislation and after the IRS has written the rules, regulations and procedures. And after the IRS has changed any forms or schedules to accept the tax code changes. And after the IRS has approved the changes in the TurboTax program that apply to the tax code changes, then it will be available for the users of the tax preparation software.
This can take anywhere from several weeks to several months before it becomes available.
