Changing the payment deadline from April 15 to May 17 in the software

Good morning everyone.

Since the IRS recently issued the change in filing and payment dates - Individual taxpayers can also postpone federal income tax payments for the 2020 tax year due on April 15, 2021, to May 17, 2021, without penalties and interest, regardless of the amount owed.

Will the software be making the change for the payment debit date from April 15 to allow for a May 17?

I have entered 05/17/2021 in the software, but currently I can't efile one clients return because it is still considered an error that must be fixed.

Thanks so much.

It will be weeks before IRS has been reprogrammed to accept a later payment date, you may want your clients to use an alternative payment method if they want to file before the changes are updated.

I am having the same problem with Texas clients with due date extended to July 15. Would it be possible to file an extension for the client and follow that with the 1040 filing with extended due dates?

I thought Texas was extended to June 15th? not July
