Why did I see a response on here saying Schedule H won't be ready until 3/17. H&R Block says it will be ready in their software by 2/7. It looks like the paper form was finalized late last year. 3/17 is ridiculous.

H&R Block's site actually said 2/3 for the Windows version.

The IRS must first approve TT's version (programming) of the form.

Well obviously the IRS is not the holdup if H&R Block is going to have it this week.

I use a Payroll service, they file the Schedule H and pay all taxes due (from my checking). That said, can I just not report the information on my form 1040, because when I do, TT form does not have a line item where I can report the taxes I paid, so TT is adding them to my taxes due.

You should enter your Schedule H in TurboTax so you could get credit for the taxes that you paid. Per IRS, Schedule H, Household Employment Taxes, attach to Form 1040, 1040-NR, 1040-SS or 1041. To enter IRS schedule H, click here.

Generally, the payroll service files your quarterly (941) and annual employer (940) returns not Schedule H. Click here for the status of Schedule H.

As previously mentioned, the IRS has to approve the programming of the form and yes this can vary - sorry for any inconvenience. It is slated to be finalized tomorrow; please check back then.
