Deductions & credits

When the IRS releases a form, then all tax software compares have to make a PDF copy, an XML copy (for e-filing), get both approved by the IRS, then code the programming behind the scenes that present the input screens and populate the 2210 form (if necessary), oh, and then test it a great deal to make sure it is (1) correct and (2) does not negatively affect other parts of the return. As I said, every software company has to do this.

 

With all the changes that are happening - many caused by the constant "moving the goalposts" of last spring where Congress and the states kept changing the laws after tax season had started - every tax software company has to allocate resources and schedule the work. It's not possible to make and test every change all at once.

 

In this case, the 2210 is scheduled to be Available (i.e. integrated into the TurboTax system and properly tested) by 2/17/2022, which I think may be earlier than previous years. See Federal Forms Availability. Please watch that link, as dates can change.
