When will the federal estimates not say do not file? I checked the IRS website and it appears as if the forms are ready for 2026.

supposed to be finalized today 2/25 but that could mean midnight, and there's usually a delay with these dates getting the updates into the s/w, if you are on desktop there is usually a weekly release which comes on Thursdays.

but if able I would suggest not using vouchers and checks and pay directly online at irs.gov

Thank you, I did get the update and the forms printed correctly today. I complete the return for an elderly lady who still likes to write checks and send in the form.
