Turbo Tax indicated the new 2017 Form 8606 would be available in Turbo Tax 2/15/18. Are you still on target for today, or is there a new ETA? Thank you.
This is ABSOLUTELY beyond ridiculously unprofessional. So ANNOYED.
I believe 8606-S will not be available today.
Link below tells me it's going to be pushed ahead another week to 02/22/18:

I'm pretty sure this is a game being played by the IRS, not TT.
The fact that the forms are available on IRS website has nothing to do with any tax software program. The forms are available if you are going to download to complete on your own. However, e-filing is different. Once the form is finalized by the IRS, it has to be coded into the special language the software uses and has to be thoroughly tested for calculations and e-filing acceptability. IRS then has to approve it for e-file. It always takes a little longer for a form to become available for e-file in a software program. I hope this helps you understand the situation. According to the update, this form will not be available until 2/15/2018.
Its not logical if efile suppose to be faster. The form and instruction are available on the website . so if i mail it i can get it back faster than efile or faster than they approve it? However thanks for info but i think this system need some work!! esp if go paperless being promoted!
It better be available by 2/15/18 or this is the last time I use Turbo Tax!
I'm with you, kickie1977. This is holding up our refund! I've had our taxes done for 3 weeks now just waiting for this form to be available in TurboTax.
It's 2/15/2018 and the it says the form is still not available. Is there a certain time this will be available?
Today is 2/15/2018 and the it says the form is still not available. Is there a certain time this will be available? I intended to manually file this year tax returns due to ITIN requirement. I anyways cannot e-File. Can I use this form available at IRS?
I am done with Turbo tax. Can't even talk to anyone without an extra fee. I paid on 2/3/2018.
Any answers on when Turbo Tax is going to have this ready & fixed? I too am ready to file our taxes, and still hung up in Turbo Tax waiting for this form 8606 S. Beyond frustrating!!
Turbotax. please update us about this form and when we can complete it! people are clearly waiting for something you said would be available, that's not a good way to do business.
I would like an update as well. Now the IRS website says 2/22/18 what does that mean for Turbo Tax? I have already paid as well...
I just called and they said the new IRS deadline is 2/22/18, so no one will be able to e-file with this form before then
So what happens to the people that already paid for the Turbo Tax filling already?
If the new deadline has been moved to 2/22, then TurboTax should have the decency to communicate this to their customers. This is BS!
I just got off the phone with someone who wanted me to share my screen with them so that I can show them that the website shows form 8606-s will be available on 2/15 and it was the most unprofessional rep that I have ever come across. She sounded like she answered the phone from home. Asides from being unprofessional the lady didn't know anything or couldn't provide any useful info. I will not be completing this years taxes with Turbotax!
Very frustrating. I am waiting on this form as well. They sure took my money though!
This is getting on my nerves! I've been waiting since the third week of January to file my taxes. TT has offered no additional information on when this form, that was supposed to be available today, will actually be available. I've used TT for years, but this will probably be my last!
