Missing 2021 Form 1116

I am using TurboTax 2021 Home & Business Desktop version for Mac.

Last week when I tried to complete Foreign Tax Credit Form 1116 I received an error message that the IRS had not yet completed the form and I should check back later.

Today I updated to Formset 2021.11607. Using EasyStep it now allows me to enter preliminary Foreign Tax Credit information to the point of selecting between a credit or deduction. When I choose the deduction option the EasyStep process stops, it defaults to the credit option, and will not complete Form 1116. I do not get an error message, just the warning “Do Not File” on the blank Form 1116.

Is this a known bug with this update?

Is TurboTax still waiting for the IRS to make Form 1116 available?

Form 1116, Foreign Tax Credit is estimated to be finalized on 03/03/2022

Go to this TurboTax website for IRS forms availability - https://care-cdn.prodsupportsite.a.intuit.com/forms-availability/turbotax_fed_online_individual.html

It is now 3/16/2021 and the form has been available for eforms for quite awhile now and yet TurboTax still does not have it in their software, or at least that is what my return is telling me. I still can not file my taxes as this is the only holdup.

I am having the same problem--trying to fill in FTC results in me being sent back to the Deductions and Credits page over and over again.
