Turbotax does not support certain tax forms. How can I still proceed using the platform and will this have an implication on my return?

Form 8621 - PFIC or QEF...and the reference to the number of forms on Form 8938 (Part IV Excepted Specified Foreign Financial Assets)

if you need a tax form that Turbotax does not support like Form 8990. You are on your own, you'll have to prepare it manually by getting the form from the IRS website and completing it. Then you have to enter the results in your tax return. Turbotax accuracy guarantee may not apply. Finally, you won't be able to e-file unless the form is specified on Form 8453 (if it's on it you can e-file and then follow the instructions for submitting the form or schedule to the IRS)

and if not able to e-file, I can still print, attach the unsupported form and send by mail? It's a simple attachment which has little impact for my return and not worth going through an external provider for...but I don't want to end up with extra hassle either taking this approach.
