I understand this is frustrating. I'm waiting to file my taxes (to use the extended filing/payment date) and to file my brother-in-law's taxes (to use the unemployment exemption).
But it's clear most of you have never written or tested software. It isn't easy to just slip something new in. It has to be tested on PC & Mac; it has to be tested on complete returns, new returns, partially complete returns, returns where it was saved exactly on the unemployment 1099 page, etc, etc, etc.
And that's the just software change. Before that happens they need lawyers to read and interpret the law then pass the information to the software developers. When the developers are done someone has to review the code and proof read any writing that the user sees.
Plus unemployment isn't the only change in the 3rd stimulus which affects 2020 taxes.
And lastly, if they got through all that and made a mistake you would be even more upset.
Cut these guys some slack, the update will come any day now.
