Why are DRAFT forms not loaded for 2022?

[RSM]

In the past we have at least had Draft forms available for a preliminary look by December of the tax year.  As of today, 1/4/23, the program is still showing ""This form is not available for release".  The tax summary is nice, but difficult to determine how special items are being computed and if data is entered properly.   Ultra Tax users have access to the draft forms, why is Lacerte behind?  We paid in for the software last summer; it should work better.

Maybe, because in the past, Intuit had users who mailed in the DRAFT forms. They might be trying to fix stupid.

Lacerte has the ability to not allow printing of draft forms.  I too am frustrated with not having access to drafts of the forms and it is now January 17.
