Form 6252 for 2020

TT is reporting Form 6252 is not available and will not be available to file until 3/4/2021. But at the irs web site the form is clearly listed and can be downloaded (OMB form 1545-0228).  All I need is this form to file but can't.  

Can anyone explain the hold up? It is a well used form.

Thanks

    I, too need this form.  It is the only thing keeping me from being able to file.  Turbo Tax seems to indicate it is an IRS form issue.  I am thinking it is a Turbo Tax issue.  Clear answers would make feel better about using Turbo Tax!

    You are so right. It's available for download as a pdf at irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f5262.pdf.  All TT says is that is "coming soon." What's the big deal?

    There is a difference between a PDF Form and an "electronic" form in that the electronic one which is used for e-filing is specially coded. The ones on the IRS site are not coded as such. Yes, they are available for download but these are for mailing in and not for e-filing.

    I am using the electronic one contained within Turbo Tax.
