I'm having the same problem with not being able to submit my taxes because of the lagging 8853 form. I've used TT for many years and never had a problem like this but with sure make me think twice next year. A form that the IRS had approved for a couple months but not approved or available in TT is unacceptable and not a good business model if you want to retain customers. Mid February now the end of March? What if it's not ready by the end of March? Will the IRS forgive my late return (I do owe money) because TT has not made this a higher priority? I think not.
