Question

Form 7206 (not done)

128 replies
751 views

I entered all the information on Form 7206, but the software still says Form 7206 (not done) with the red explanation mark. Is it because the IRS form is not ready yet? Is waiting until February 7 the only thing I need to do?

Yes, the form won't be available in TurboTax before 02/07/2024.

It takes some time to incorporate IRS forms into TurboTax. While they may be available from the IRS on a given date, we need a few days to make the forms available for use in TurboTax.

This is the first year I am trying to file early (usually wait until end of March) and have never experienced this issue. Something new learned. Thanks.

If you have self employed health insurance deductions you must wait until TT finalizes the form 7206. It is filed out in TT with a red flag warning that it is not yet ready for use. I have seen on several blogs that people are deleting the form so that they can e-file early. Although I believe form 7206 will not affect most returns, unless it is included you stand to incorrectly take the self employed health insurance tax deduction when you may not be entitled to do so. This is a new form and so that noting it was not present on 2022 returns does not matter it is necessary for 2023.

We know some of our customers have had issues with Form 7206. Please use this FAQ to sign up for notifications.

Interesting because when I called yesterday I spoke to two reps and both said that’s the first time they heard about it. They just said that with this form you cannot E-file. Proof that support sucks. It’s the same with Quickbooks over the last years so many people lacking experience. I am done with Intuit.

It’s Feb 7th, and it still won’t let me file.

According to the Forms Availability Table, Form 7206 will be ready to file on February 7, 2024. We recommend that you wait until the next day, update TurboTax (if using the desktop version), run Review again, then attempt to e-file.

Makes sense. "It'll be available on 2/7, but it won't actually be available until 2/8." 😐🙄

Any updates to when this form will be available? I’ve paid for the service and at a hold to finish filing because of this .

Can we please get some clarity on the delay of this form? I would like a refund to go file elsewhere if intuit is going to further delay this form and not provide answers.

How do you find the form? It just keeps telling me “form will be available 2/7/24”

where am I supposed to actually go to fill this out???

With TurboTax you won't access/edit the actual form. You answer questions and fill out items that they then put into all the relevant actual forms that get sent to the IRS. So what we were waiting for was for TT to integrate the form into their systems. They sent an email out today saying they did and its ready but when I login it still says its not yet available. Once it is, you will be able to simply finish your TurboTax like normal and it won't give the warning about not having 7206 yet. Hopefully they get resolved soon.
