When will Form 8915-E be available? TurboTax indicates "IRS instructions related to disaster distributions weren't ready in time for this release." It's been weeks now.

I tried filing 2/12 but that form wasn't available.  Came back to file today, 2/22, still nothing. It's the last document I need for completion.

No, it is not ready yet, but it is scheduled to be ready by the end of the week!    You can use the link below to sign up and be notified when it is available.  If you took a distribution from a retirement account due to coronavirus-related issues, you will be able to waive the penalty and spread the ordinary tax over tax years 2020-2022.    Once the forms are final (should be by the weekend), you will see the options to apply the tax relief provisions on Form 8915-E. 

 

Please sign-up here and we will email you once the form is live.

Was that the web filing or desktop version when you filed yours?

Today is 2/25, it is not on the Desktop Home and Business version.  I’m spreading the tax over 3 years. You will want to consider this if it will put you into a better status for getting the next stimulus payment.
