    FORM 8915-E availability

    Level 5

    I have a taxpayer with a covid qualifying early IRA distribution. There is a box to check on the 1099-R entry worksheet but nothing happens when you check it other than it turns red. I looked for the 8915-E form which I know I need to complete and there is nothing on Proseries for that Form. I tried to find out through forms availability when it would be available and found nothing there unless I missed it in the massive file listing that was not in any order of Form number. 

    Does anyone know if Proseries is going to support Form 8915-E? and if so, when i

    When you encounter that jumbled mess, use Ctrl + F to search and you should be able to find this not too helpful listing:

    Form 8915-E, Qualified 2020 Disaster Retirement Plan Distributions and Repayments (Taxpayer) Final on 02/25/2021, EF Not Allowed

    "unless I missed it in the massive file listing that was not in any order of Form number."

    Yes, that is correct.

    Apparently the data on intuit is wrong. I just talked to a support rep and they said 2/25 is no longer the day. We'll have to wait until after 3/1. They said it was on the IRS. However, the dates on their site continue to move. Wish I just knew the truth and had a date to rely on. What is frustrating is having to refresh all the time meanwhile TurboxTax is spamming my email for me to finish my return at a discount. Dude, if you all get your app working I will. Going to try other vendors to be on the safe side. The past two years it's been that way.

    But this is not a TurboTax Community. That isn't the software being used here.

    This applies to the software in use here:

    I'm having the same issue.  It's 03/25/23 and I can't get the loan repayment entered on a 1099-R. Once the program gets updated, the repayment amount should post to the 8915-E worksheet.

    Any updates or eta on the fix?

    @Sweens10 

    This topic is from two years ago. That means you are not having the same issue, unless you really are preparing a 2020 tax return for your client.

    Also, this is not a Loan repayment topic. It's for Form 8915, which is disaster distributions.

    Further, the Form for 2021 and beyond is Form 8915-F. This topic is for Form 8915-E.

    All of which is why you should start a new topic on your specific and current issue. Thanks.
