Will Proseries software be updated soon to reflect a direct debit date up to 5/17/2021 as a timely payment of Federal Tax due under the newly extended date?

Define SOON?

[LimaTaxPreparer]

Well, you made me chuckle, at least! How about within a week??

[IRonMaN]

How about 2 weeks?  What the heck, let's split the difference and go with a guess of a week and half.  It still is a guessing game since Intuit isn't sharing that secret yet.

It won't even let you efile.

[IRonMaN]

Change the date to 4/15 or sit on the return for awhile.

[her59]

My client doesn't want to pay until 5/15

[IRonMaN]

Then wait, or have them pay electronically later, or pay with a check later.

I don't receive the error message anymore when i put 5/17 as the date.  I was still receiving it as of Tuesday.  Does this mean, we can e-file and have direct debit of 5/17.  Thanks

[IRonMaN]

They updated the software a couple of days ago but some folks said they were still having issues with NY.  But if you aren't getting any error messages, you should be good to go.

[her59]

The fed error is gone, but the state is still there.

[LimaTaxPreparer]

Yes, fortunately my client could still handle using a 4/15 date so that one is done now. Otherwise I would still be holding it!
