I have never had to wait before and I noticed the site said they will not be available until 29 Jan but it is now 5 Feb and they are still not available.

Can't say for certain, but keep checking

The IRS is behind this tax season because last fall brought the double whammy of bad weather and pending tax legislation.

In response to Hurricanes Irma and Harvey, the IRS enacted special regulations to ease the tax burden for taxpayers in these areas.

They also delayed finalizing many of their forms as they waited to see if any of the provisions of the new laws would be retroactive. While none of the changes affect 2017 taxes, the IRS didn't know this until late December.
