When will Form 6251 be ready in TurboTax?

pruittma1 · ‎February 14, 2021

For several weeks my TurboTax software has been telling me that Form 6251 isn't ready yet.

The form is on the IRS website. What's the holdup?

When can I expect TurboTax to catch up with the IRS? This is annoying - I can't file my taxes because the software isn't up to date.

Form 6251 is scheduled for availability in TurboTax Online on 2/18/2021. See the Forms Availability table linked below.

Federal Individual Forms Availability (intuit.com)

Once a form is released by the IRS, TurboTax has to assimilate the form into their software, then test to see that it is functioning properly.
