When will turbo tax have form 8839 uploaded?  the form shows on the IRS website that the updates for 2021 has already been completed but I can't move forward in turbo tax because it is saying this form is not ready.  I filed this form last year and still have carryforward credit so I know this form was available last year because I have been using Turbo Tax for several years.

    Form 8839, Qualified Adoption Expenses will be available on 02/03/2022. Once the form is finalized by the IRS, it has to be coded and tested for calculations and e-filing acceptability.

    Turbo Tax said form 8839 would be ready to use on February 3, 2022.  It is now February 22, 2022, and I still cannot file because the form is not ready.  Why is Form 8839 not ready NOW?  It is on the IRS website ready for use, yet Turbo Tax says you cannot file it by mail or E-File it.  I pay A LOT for this program, and I am mad that it is not up to date.

    Did you end up hearing an update on this? I am in the same boat as you. I would like to be able to file this week but the software said "ready soon" for that form.

    So essentially, it is a Turbo Tax coder issue.
