F.8912 is supported by MeF but apparently not by Intuit.
Since it's a tax form that requires IRS processing, unless PS has a link under e-filing attachment to F.8912 (there isn't in Lacerte/ProConnect), it shouldn't be uploaded because it won't be processed. You should see a warning in PS similar to what's in Lacerte/ProConnect:
- NOTE: Do not attach any document that needs IRS approval or attention
Instead, F.8948 should be sent with the paper-filed return and the following box should be checked with the blanks filled in:
- 5. The preparer’s e-file software package does not support Form ____________ or Schedule ___________ attached to this return.
