2023 Form 8936 Availability

I know there's a lot of discussion going on regarding the tax credit being for US produced EV's as well as battery mineral composition for 2023 but has anyone heard when form 8936 (EV credit) will be available for 2022? The purchase cutoff date of 8/16/22 for non-US manufactured EVs is pretty solid. What is the IRS waiting for?

Its not the IRS, its been available for some time: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8936.pdf

I called TT support and they say it will not be available until Feb 9, 2023. Prior to that it was 1/20, 1/26, 2/02, they keep moving the goalposts. The option is to print out the tax return and e-file yourself or mail it in. I also requested a refund form since TT could not complete my taxes for 2022.

Doing the same myself. They can give me no reason as to why the form is delayed on their end, but available through the IRS. If anything, it concerns me that they're stating "The IRS hasn't finalized one or more of your forms...". That is not an accurate statement.

Federal Form 8936 should be available in TurboTax on 02/09/2023. You can see Forms availability table for TurboTax individual (personal) tax products to watch for updates on the availability.

I'm glad to see a response to this question from an actual TT employee. Today is February 9th, so I hope to see the form published. I have been using TT for almost 20 years without any hitches and hope they continue to provide a solid product. EV car buyers have a lot riding on this tax credit and are anxious to get their forms filed.

The forms on TT will most likely be programmed by EOD today or tomorrow at the latest. This happened last year as well where it took them a day to program it into their platform.

Well its February 9th 2023, and still no form 8936 on Turbo Tax Deluxe. Now they are saying "available soon". Give me a break. I paid for this software and now I'm having to wait weeks to even file my taxes to get my refund if I want to use TurboTax. A big fail on their part.

....yes please, someone tell us what is going on with these forms' availability. One more day and back to Costco this software goes, and off to H&R Block.

I was able to process my tax refund with EV tax credit just now. Not sure why anyone else on this thread couldn't?

I believe they just uploaded the correct software within the past 3 hours - which is why people who tried this morning failed. It's working now!

Feb. 9 is here! Still no Form 8936 for 2022 TurboTax. The IRS form is already published for 2022 Tax year. Who is responsible and accountable fir the support of this product?

TurboTax support, how do I electronically file using the IRS form?

Also, how do I receive a refund for 2022 TurboTax Home and Business since it is not complete with this form 8936?
