For some reason, TurboTax wants to discourage you from filing 4868 early.
===
Do you have an estimate of tax due on April 18th? You are expected to make a payment with your request.
===
You don’t need to file Form 4868 if you make a payment using the IRS
electronic payment options. Your extension will be automatically
processed when you pay all or part of your estimated income tax due and indicate that the payment is for an extension using Direct Pay, the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System, or using a credit or debit card. Your extension is then automatically granted and you will receive a confirmation number for your records.
