This might not be simple to do. Updating the tax software is only a small part. Changing the entire business model that ends all online e-file capabilities on the Oct 15 (extended due date) to purge the servers of tax returns and store all online tax returns as PDF files would require a huge development effort. The e-file capability for the desktop versions also ends at that time so that the servers can be reprogrammed for the next years software.
Updating the program is only a small part - updating the software to transmit an amended return to the TurboTax e-file servers does no good if the servers aren't there to receive it.
In my opinion, it will take a while for TurboTax marketing and management to decide how to handle this. (if they offer it at all).
