AR exempt unemployment update

[blstrasner]

When will Turbo Tax reflect the act passed to exempt Arkansas unemployment from state income taxes?

TT cannot do anything  until the state implements procedures for this, and then approves TT's programming of those procedures. But see this:

Seriously?  You ask this question like minutes after a law was passed.  You must not understand how laws work.  Or software. 

It will be a while.  

File a state extension.  Although, it is likely that Arkansas will extend the filing deadline for everyone anyway to allow for this - they are going to have to change their forms and all sorts of things before the software makers will even know WHAT exactly to do.
