What's the delay with submitting form 8936? I entered my tax information then at the end I was told I couldn't e-file until 2/2 and now it's been pushed back to 2/9?

Is this a Turbo Tax issue or IRS?

It takes some time to incorporate IRS forms into TurboTax. While they may be available from the IRS on a given date, we need a few days to make the forms available for use in TurboTax.

Use this tool to look up when your individual tax forms will be available in TurboTax. You can search by TurboTax product and for IRS or state-specific forms.

Keep checking back for updates.

You can also use the link below to review the filing instructions and view Form 8936 so you will be prepared to complete your return as soon as the Form is available.

This is ridiculous, it's the morning of 2/9 and I've been waiting to e-file my taxes because this year I have the EV tax credit. I've had my filing completed since 1/30 and nothing but delay after delay due to Turbo Tax. I've used this software for years and this will DEFINITELY be the last year I use it!

I was told I couldn't e-file initially until 2/2 then 2/9 and now I have a message stating to leave my email because they will notify me when they've made updates for this particular form. I want to know if I can get my money back so I can go file my taxes using some other software that is better prepared.

I should have my refund in my account already.

I just want to know what's the hold up to tax for 8936. I purchased my EV in January of 2022 and it seems like I am being held up because of some changes from August, 2022 for new purchasers and 2023 owners. Ford hasn't hit their 200,000 units mark and I should be able to bypass all the red tape that may be causing delays.

The status from this link. Now says "Ready Soon" Is that today, tomorrow next week, next month?

That tool says 8936 will be available in TurboTax today. It's not. Based on her EV purchase date, my daughter needs to file before later this month. Getting worried if she'll make the deadline.

@tomnteena wait, there's a time frame during which you need to file or you lose it? how long is that??

And, c'mon TurboTax! What's with the endless delays? The form is up on the IRS website. Please get it built.

Maybe not a federal deadline, but based on what my daughter told me her 1040 needs to be filed before about a week from now so she can submit it to her State and get some sort of State rebate.

arggggh, this is so frustrating. This "Turbo Tax form 8936 gate", is going to cost Turbo Tax big time next year. They've lost lots of customers by not getting on top of this and at least letting folks know what the hold up is, and a realistic deliverable date.

IRS Form 8936 (rev. Jan 2023) is available for download from the irs.gov/pub website.

What's up with the delay in it being available in TurboTax?

It is February 9th and this keeps getting pushed back.

For those of us that you are delaying the filing of our taxes, are you going to offer some sort of credit?

Not happy!

Uploading Tax Forms

Hi,

Since it appears that TurboTax, the application, may be behind on uploading/updating the various federal and state tax forms; then, maybe TurboTax should include the option for the customers to upload the applicable forms to be filed with their state and federal taxes. Just a thought.

In addition to the delay in this form, why don't Turbo Tax reply to the comments here? Clearly there are many of us waiting on this and frustrated with the delay.

According to the tax form availability IRS form 8936 is available.

Please contact customer support if you are still having problems.

What is the TurboTax phone number?

True in 2024, too? I filled out everything on my 2023 taxes and it says form 8936 is not yet available so I have to wait, but the IRS has had the 2023 8936 up on its website. And this thread shows the problem was last year, too?

Question for Intuit Customer Service: Is this an error that my desktop TurboTax is saying that 8936 isn't yet available, or is it really that Intuit hasn't incorporated it into TurboTax again?

@MichNoah

The IRS Form 8936 Clean Vehicle Credit for tax year 2023 has not been finalized in TurboTax.

The form is scheduled to be available on 02/21/2024.

Go to this TurboTax website for forms availability - https://form-status.app.intuit.com/tax-forms-availability/formsavailability?albRedirect=true&product...

I started reading this message thinking it was for tax year 2023. Apparently, Intuit had the same problem for 2022 and is still delayed in getting 8936 ready. There's been no change to the form so I'm not sure why there's a delay in having it ready. Delaying filing for a credit of this amount is going to cause a lot of people problems. Intuit needs to do better in this regard.

@DoninGA

Any chance you can get the Moderators to contact the folks creating the Forms list?

Get them to move the 8936 to at least one day later....like Thursday the 22nd instead of Wed the 21st?

That might avoid at least some of the screaming.

_______

The 1040X too is listed as the 21st, and that won't happen (OK, 80% won't happen)...one more day later....heck, looking at the not-ready list, those not ready are all listed as Wednesdays, which almost never happens. Change any not ready to one, or even two days later !

DoninGA — Thu, 08 Feb 2024 14:45:49 GMT

@SteamTrain I requested that the dates be changed to Thursdays back on January 11, 2024. Other than the reply back that they would forward the request....nothing was done.

DoninGA I just used your link. It says form 8936 is available, but it's not.

Can you explain? Pretty frustrating.
