The online editions are updated automatically.  You do not have to update anything.

 

For an energy-efficient vehicle tax credit

Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home & Business)
Click on Deductions and Credits
Click on I'll choose what I work on
Scroll down to Cars and Other Things You Own
On Energy-Efficient Vehicles, click the start or update button


Or enter energy efficient vehicle in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to energy efficient vehicle

That's what I've been doing and the form is still not available. This is most frustrating. If this isn't ready by the end of the week, I'm switching over to H&R. As reluctant as I am to do this, I feel like I don't have a choice.

I have it on my desktop edition which I updated about 20 minutes ago.  The online editions may not yet be updated as of yet.  But should be later today.

It appears that this form will not be available now until 2/20/20 even though the IRS provided it to Turbotax 1/29/20.  This is holding up the tax refunds of many Tesla purchasers who bought Turbotax in order to efile and receive a prompt refund.  Why is it taking Turbotax so long to input this form into its software?  Why has Turbotax postponed the availability date three times? Doesn't Turbotax have an accurate estimate of the date when this form will be available for efilers?
