you are smart not filing now. the Turbotax app needs updating to handle the excludable portion.   can't give you a date when this will be ready.     it's likely you'll need to report the gross and then on another line of the return report the excludable portion.

You are among millions who have now been affected by a mid-tax season change in the tax law.  Patience will be necessary.

TurboTax will update the software for the unemployment but there is no timeline yet.

  If you have not e-filed yet—-wait.   And if you already e-filed and want to amend for this—WAIT.
