A Schedule

I 

isn't a part of the software for WI yet.....WI changed it and had it issued in late January, but the TTX software has to be adjusted to integrate the changes and tested to include it to work properly with everything else..

I have same problem.  This should have been a couple hour fix, but  TurrboTax must not have trained software staff.  A way around it could be to go to Forms and print the pages one at a time.

The "fix" is not that simple.

 

First, TurboTax has to get the form from the state.

 

Then, TurboTax has to create an electronic copy of the form and get it approved by the state.

 

Then, TurboTax must code the software need to use the form. This can be made difficult by last-minute changes by the state or the late release of the form.

 

Then TurboTax has to test the software to make sure that it gets the right answers and that nothing broke.

 

And TurboTax has to do this in the middle of the first peak of tax season, when programmers and others are on call for 1,000 other issues.

 

Note that the state did not post its own fill-in version of the form until today (2/4/2020) - see the state forms webpage.
