Are you using the online version? When I use the TurboTax 2019 version installed on my computer it still says "The Energy Efficient Vehicle Charging Station Area Will Be Ready Soon." Think I still just need to have some patience and wait until the 20th.
My Federal and State returns were rejected because the feds form still want ready. TurboTax said the feds will have the form ready on the 20th
Seems like Turbotax has both 8936 and 8911 live and working today. If you put $7,500 in the credit box at the end of the 8936 questionnaire, it is correctly dividing by 50% or 25%.
Welp, it was all calculating correctly, but the return still got rejected. Turbotax has really dropped the ball on this...
Yes, TT is not calculating the tax credit dates correctly. I bought my car last March and it's telling me my credit is $1875 when it should be $3750. TT is aware of the issue as multiple people had called about this issue when I was on the phone with them. They are supposed to have it fixed tomorrow.
Ok so Tesla told me to go back on to TT and put in the $7500 and not the $3750 and that TT would correct the amount and that worked! so if you are using TT and dont get the full $7500 just put that in anyway and TT will do the math. Fingers crossed!
I spoke to H&R Block over their chat feature about form 8911, right after the previous software/form update on 2/14. The lady had to check on things for several minutes, but she said the form wasn't fully ready from the IRS and they expect it to be loaded in the 3/5 update of the software. I'm impatiently waiting until then as my taxes have been ready for 3 weeks to submit, outside of form 8911.
I think I will next year. I bought it because it was half the cost for my business (LLC) and personal taxes, but I didn't like the software itself. Already filed the business taxes, so just need to get through it for personal and will consider switching back for 2020 taxes.
Our lady at H&R Block insists that the 8911 form is for business use only. I may be walking away if I can't manage to convince her to file it.
I just chatted with them again and specifically asked if it would be available for personal tax use in the next update (3/5). She said yes and confirmed the next update. I'll hold until 3/6 hoping it comes out by then.
I have a feeling that up-and-down the chain of command at H&R Block, the word is that 8911 is a business-only form and that has been their stance for years, so I'm not optimistic for 2019. I'll be pleasantly surprised if they do, but it's looking like I'll be switching to TurboTax after having used H&R Block's software for decades (back when it was owned by Kiplinger).
Form 8911 just became available today through the IRS Free File Fillable Forms: Welcome to Fillable Forms
TaxAct still has not updated their software to include form 8911. I just emailed them to get an ETA since the IRS form was released some time ago.
So annoying. I guess I'll wait until March 5 before I try HR block again. Of course it's the last thing I'm waiting for.
New update from H&R Block today on Form 8911 (software updated today): Via chat: Thank you so much for holding. Seen the program was not giving the answer I was looking for, I ask one of my advisor. Apparently the Form is only available for Business, they do not supported in on the regular software because customer do not use it. But, you can download the Form on the IRS website, but on doing so, you have to print and mailed.
Ditto. It will be 2 weeks since it was received by the IRS tomorrow... Looking back at last year I saw some refunds took the full 21 days, but I hope it doesn't take that long for us...
