Turbotax says CT forms will be available 1/23/25 so I'm wondering why I can't file my CT return yet?

Well---it is early in the day.   And those dates are subject to change.  So....try again later or maybe tomorrow if the forms are still not ready.

As of 6:30 PM...CT forms are not available

CT forms are not ready.  They were supposed to be available yesterday.  Can someone from Intuit give us some guidance when they will be available for download?

Thanks

At this point, none of us know. 

1)   Sometimes they are a day late, and those using the "Desktop" software just need to re-run their software updates.  Online users just would try again the next  day.

2)  or it might not happen for another week.  The State expected date can change if the crew working on it hits some major bug that needs fixing...or perhaps the state found a problem and didn't approve TTX starting up yet.   When that happens, it can take a few days for the new "expected" state forms ready date to be updated to a later date.

Thanks for the update.

Really? How? I also been waiting for the Ct forms to be ready through turbo tax. I dont know if I should just file the federal and wait for the state.

Please help

Thanks

Hi Serenity:

I e-filed the federal form only with Turbo tax.

The state of CT has the forms ready on their site and filing is free.

Go to:

https://drs.ct.gov/eservices

Look for myconneCT.

This is the department of revenue services for CT.  Create an account and you'll be on your way.  It was very easy.  I filed the state return today for my son.

Hey,

That's what I did. I just filed my federal taxes then did the CT returns through the CT Department of Revenue website. It was free and pretty easy. Hope this helps 😊

Thank you. It loos pretty easy I am just confused on the part where it asks for 1040 form or Schedule 1. 

What does that mean?

Thanks

[serenity29-]

Schedule CT dependent.

[jbeth]

Let me check what I did.  I don’t think I did anything with it.  I’ll get back to you

[serenity29-]

Thank you

[jbeth]

OK...

I looked at the submission I did this morning and these are the forms I used.  By the way Turbo Tax calculated the same refund as the state of CT site.  I selected C T-1040 and Schedule CT dependent.

Hope this helps.
