Question

Missing forms?

The IRS released form 8949 on 12/10 with instructions on 1/28 and form 8960 on 1/25 with instructions on 1/29. When will these be available in TT business 2020? The TT table says it is "available" but I haven't gotten a new update (says my software is up to date)

Same here.  I've received two emails from TurboTax saying Form 8960 is available but the app won't update with the form.

May I ask which version of TurboTax you are using?

I am using TurboTax for Business for Tax Year 2020 (Windows only) and am preparing a Form 1041 (Trust) tax return.  Even though your website and two emails to me state that Form 8960 is now available for update and download, my app says it is up to date and will not download the Form.  Mase46

The availability of the forms has now been changed to 2/11. We will see if they will come through on an update

As of this morning, the automatic update works!  The forms are now there.

Thank you, QUINN!

You may need to do a manual update. 

 

What is a manual update?
