The TurboTax online editions should be available in early December.

The IRS will not be accepting any type of 2017 tax return until mid to late January 2018.

The IRS will hold all tax refunds that include either EIC or the Additional Child Tax Credit until mid February 2018.  The IRS expects the earliest EITC/ACTC related refunds to be available in taxpayer bank accounts or debit cards starting on Feb. 27, 2018, if direct deposit was used and there are no other issues with the tax return.
