Yes, as I said before, it was a lady from the "Office of the president", NOT the president himself/herself. I got the call after complaining on Twitter. As I mentioned in my post, there are NO guarantees, given "formally" on the website it says that Form 1116, Sch B won't be supported for e-filing. I am guessing if you just call the customer service line, you will be given the "formal" response, given they do not want to give you false hopes. The choice is yours - you can wait until Mar 16th and see what happens, or file sooner w/ deleted/adjusted-for-zero-carryover 1116 form or itemized deductions, and amend later, as you mentioned.
