When will IL 1040 be ready to print

I’ve heard 1/31. Ashely is looking into this for us.

[IRonMaN]

I was just going to page you but then I saw you running in this direction :runner:

[garman22]

Hahah!! I’ve been waiting for more people to chime in from Illinois. Was it you who said “the squeaky wheel gets the grease”? The more ppl who ask the greater the chance we have. Illinois has their forms up on IDOR website.

[IRonMaN]

At least you don't live in Alabama :cry:

[garman22]

Oh man....I just commented earlier on that post. I hope to god Illinois is not like that and I truly hope that users from Alabama get it before then. Problem is is that if we can’t print, how do they expect us to print efile sig forms? I know there is a workaround but...what a pain. One said he is leaving ASAP to a competitor.

[IRonMaN]

For the folks that crank out a lot of returns, their tax season has shrunk to only two months.  You can't really blame them for leaving if they do.

[garman22]

Not at all. We have a very short life span per year to make our money. Sometimes I wonder if PS knows this. This is specifically regarding the timeframe it takes for updates etc....man, I do feel for the Alabama folks.

[garman22]

I’ll need you to scream with me and all Illinois users to PS heaven if Illinois turns out same. :smile:

[IRonMaN]

You know I am the assistant pot stirrer so I will be there for you if needed.

[garman22]

Gracias senor!! Nice to have friends!

So it seems Illinois is final. And although you're not seeing all the firm info dates on release page there' is info regarding what looks like another Illinois release slated for today.

[AshleyatIntuit]

Let's confirm this afternoon

[IRonMaN]

I hope so, my arms are getting tired stirring the pot.

[garman22]

Oh, thats great, @Ashley at Intuit (aka Henry Jr). As long as I know we are good to go within a few days, I can hold off the natives. So, it seems we just need to release Illinois not being able to print. This is good news.

[garman22]

@IRonMaN @Ashley at Intuit (aka Henry Jr) I've asked the @IRonMaN to work out his arms and he was ready. Stand down my friend.

[IRonMaN]

Thanks - I need the rest.

[AshleyatIntuit]

Sicking the iron gaurd dog on me.... Man! Lol

[garman22]

No, No. Never on you @Ashley at Intuit (aka Henry Jr). But Iron Cerberus was ready.

[garman22]

Sleep Iron Cerberus.:sleeping: :relaxed:

[garman22]

I'll reach out to you later this afternoon and see what we see.

Sounds good
