Form 1116 delay and missing early state e-file pricing

[working_mom]

Good evening, 

I've had my taxes ready to file since the middle of February but have been waiting for form 1116 to be available in turbo tax desktop edition.  The estimated date was most recently 2/24; however, when I logged in today it was changed to 3/3/21.  I was hoping to catch the early filing price for state e-file by filing prior to the end of February.  Is there any chance that Turbo Tax might extend the early filing pricing due to the form being unavailable?  I have used Turbo tax for many years and this is the first time I haven't been able to file prior to the end of February.

I am in the same exact situation, ready to file Federal, but form 1116 is pending and will be available 3/3/2022, but early filing discount is valid until 2/28/2022.   I have also been a long time customer of Turbo tax (over 15 years), and most of the time, I end up filing later in March but this is one of those times when I got an early start and want to finish early 🙂

Per advise from another thread, I was informed that I can pay before March 1 to lock early price, and file later after form 1116 is available.  I paid the money beforehand.   

Now I see form 1116, but when I perform federal return review, I get an error stating "Form 1116 (COPY 1) -- Foreign Tax Credit Comp Wks: Total Incoming C/O has a value. This will require Form 1116, Schedule B, which will be available in a future product update"

Can you provide the date of availability of 1116 Schedule B?

I am reading in other community threads that TT does not have a firm date of availability for this form.  If so, I would like to know the process on how to request a refund, in case I am unable to file timely because of non availability of this form by Turbo Tax.

Per the URL you posted, for Turbo Tax Online/Mobile, I see that Form 1116 B, will be available in TT on 3/17/2022 by PRINT ONLY, and not supported for e-File

We all know IRS is backlogged by a  lot of pending paper IT returns from prior years 

If Turbo Tax does not have plan to support e-Filing of this form, it means individuals like me will need to file by Paper/PRINT, so there will be a lot of delay in getting refund.

Kindly provide me with the process to submit for a refund of Turbo tax fees.  I have paid in advance for 2021 return but not filed yet due to forms being not available, and if there will be no support for e-Filing of this form, I want to keep my options open.
