Why does "do not file" show up on my form 8938?

Because it is not available yet.  As of today, it is not available for e file yet.   The IRS expects to approve the form 8938 on TurboTax e-file as  02/25/2021.  

 

 

If you live in the US and meet one of the following criteria, you would need to file a Form 8938.  

  • Unmarried individual (or married filing separately): Total value of assets was more than $50,000 on the last day of the tax year, or more than $75,000 at any time during the year.
  • Married individual filing jointly: Total value of assets was more than $100,000 on the last day of the tax year, or more than $150,000 at any time during the year.
