Please add support for efiling Form 4868 - extension of time to file

[DanTheDapperMan]

Turbotax, please add support next year for filing Form 4868 electronically.

It's honestly a bit ridiculous that such a simple form cannot be efiled from Turbotax with as many years as Turbotax has been in development, and the Form 4868 IRS instructions even stating that the form can be efiled IF the tax filing software supports it. So consider this a request to support it, please!

Thank you

Thank you! Turbotax standalone did not tell me this, which is unfortunate. I would have appreciated if it did. Instead it directed me to print the form and mail it. I think Turbotax standalone should either redirect to the link you sent, or support filing the extension from within the standalone product. I had already mailed the printed form today, but I submitted online also just now to make sure it gets to the IRS.
