Form 5695 Errors

It seems to me that the current (now final) form 5695 has several errors. It does not have a line for electric heat pumps, and when I enter a value in the geothermal heat pump cell, it calculates a value that is too high for the refund (supposed to max at $2000). This seems to be an important bug.

Supposedly they "might" be ready daytime on  8 Feb...but don't bother trying until 9 Feb !

 

(of course, they may decide tonight to delay another week....no promises)

TurboTax lists this form as complete and ready on their website.

I would like to take a deeper look at this. However, I need a diagnostic file which is a copy of your tax return that has all of your personal information removed. You can send one to us by following the directions below:

TurboTax Online:
Sign into your online account.
Locate the Tax Tools on the left-hand side of the screen. 
A drop-down will appear. Select Tools 
On the pop-up screen, click on “Share my file with agent.”
This will generate a message that a diagnostic file gets sanitized and transmitted to us.
Please provide the Token Number that was generated in the response.

TurboTax Desktop/Download Versions:
Open your return.
Click the Online tab in the black bar across the top of TurboTax and select “Send Tax File to Agent”
This will generate a message that a diagnostic copy will be created. Click on OK and the tax file will be sanitized and transmitted to us.
Please provide the Token Number that was generated in the response.
