Thanks all for reaching out. Form 2210 when there is a waiver for the 85%, it shows on the form itself and looks like the attached file. If there is no explanation of waiver, Lacerte will generate diagnostic Ref #705, that an explanation for this waiver needs to be entered. I have not heard any indication that the form will be changed as of yet.
For the charitable deductions, I know that we are aware and have created a diagnostic about it. I am unable to speak for development however, I have supported our products for many years and how we implement change and how fast it is released is based on a multitude of things. These things could be, but not limited to, its complexity, outstanding tax law changes and whatever else is on our development's plate. One reason why it might not have happened as of yet (this is purely speculation and I might not be searching the IRS site well enough), could be dependent upon more form instructions. I tried to find publication 526 for 2018 as this might impact how the new 60% deduction interacts, but I was not able to (as I said I could have missed it). Our development is working very hard to get all the changes done and to fix other things expected or unexpected that may come up throughout the tax season.
