The webpage says that the form is now available but my Turbotax which just updated says that the form isnt ready yet? How long does it take to integrate a form into turbotax?

At first it was Jan 23rd.

 

Then it was Feb 5th. 

 

And now when I check it, its Feb 12th. 

 

Makes me SICK, I NEED my my $5000 return, dont tell me one thing and then do another. Not cool or acceptable. Nothing is more frustrating then seeing others get their returns while you cant do anything but pray that your form will become available.

Other companies show 8936 forms are up to date and available. Ok seriously slick side ring jumping ship this year after 10+ years with TurboTax.

Dear TurboTax. This year I switched to HR Block because they had this form ready. I’ve had fraud in the past so I like to file ASAP. I know the form 8936 was released by IRS on 1/29 and I’m not willing to wait u til 2/12. As a customer I felt it was unacceptable and this year I voted with my money and went elsewhere.

Is the 8936 EV rebate form included in the 1019 tax package?

I just used H&R to file since they have form 8936 for some time now. If they have it you have no excuse not to!

It looks like the final form was posted on the irs website on 1/29/20.  Not sure why it hasn’t appeared within TurboTax yet.

The IRS has apparently not approved the Turbo Tax form.  Latest ETA is 2/12.

All discussion threads say that form 8936 would be available on TurboTax by Feb 2 or Feb 5.  It is Feb 7, and it is STILL NOT available.  What is the new available date?

OK, I'm done with this.

 

I read through all the threads and it is apparent that Turbo Tax is the problem, not the IRS.  TB sent their product to the IRS too late in the season to be tested and can't get it up and running for this year.

 

ALL!!  go to H&R block.  They have it up and running.  They thought it through.

Now I don't even see Form 8936 in the form availability section for TT.

Noticed that too, just now.  Not sure what kind of a circus TurboTax is running, but this is downright ridiculous!!

Today is February 12 and the form still not available as it was Last promise.

Even worst, now the form is not longer listed in 

IRS forms availability table for TurboTax individual (personal) tax products

I’m  thinking seriously move to a different platform, very disappointing on TurboTax.
