When will the intuit basic 1040 be e-file ready? I need it ready a.s.a.p!!

I am waiting for the forms, in the basic 1040 software, to be finalized so I can e-file tax returns for my clients, and they need it NOW!   Why isn't the software forms for the Basic 1040 electronic filing ready now?  I keep checking the updates for this every day.

Are you seeing Error 54 your program needs to be updated (or something like that)?  That means that form(s) in the return arent final, running through REVIEW should show you some kind of diagnostics.


I did see someone in the Facebook PS group, that had this continuous message that the program wasnt updated, they couldnt convert or Efile, had to uninstall the 1040 module and reinstall it.

They have been ready for quite awhile.  Click on your computer start menu, select ProSeries and click on repair updates.

I tried what you suggested, and even rebooted the computer.  Did not work. Still showed that the forms were not ready for electronic filing. So after that I then proceeded to clicked update installed software within the software - still did not work.  So now what do I do?

Check the options wizard from when you set it up.  Maybe you did something wrong there.  


All the data I entered was correct in the Options Wizzard.  updates did not make the forms ready for e-file.  Now what?
