@Just-Lisa-Now-  "I didnt realize that some states not being final until the first week of Feb was unusual ...isn't that how it works every year"

It isn't unusual for Intuit, but that is kinda their point --------- it ain't quite that unusual for other softwares.  I don't have that issue for MN, but I'm not really cranking out returns yet.  But I would be just as pissed as these folks are after having their practices thrown up in the air because of Intuit delays.
