Form 8911 Delay

[lqjohn7]

Form 8911 gets updated each week, Feb 14, Feb 21, Feb 28, now telling me to check back on March 6. Is there a way to just kill the form and file electronically without waiting for the update? It looks like I probably won't qualify for a credit for a home charger installation anyway.

If you are unwilling or unable to wait for the updated form to be released, you have the option to change your answers to the Energy Credit questions in TurboTax. Or you may try deleting Form 8911 from your return, but it may repopulate based on the entries you've made.

To review your entries for the Energy-Efficient Charging Station, go to Deductions & Credits and scroll down to the Energy-Efficient topic. Click Edit/Update on that line and delete/remove your entries.

You might also confirm the related forms are no longer in your return.
