Question

If Turbo Tax says a form 8995 will be available on 1/29/2021, does that mean I do not need to create one?

From what I read the form is automatically created. But it's not available to file and it's 1/29/2021

TurboTax will generate Form 8995 when you report on your tax return any:

  • Self employment income 
  • Schedule K-1 
  • 1099-DIV with income in box 5. 

The form will be available on 02/04/2020. Federal Individual Form Availability

I am unable to file my return as Form 8895 is still not available.  How long will it take?

 

Thank you!

Form 8995 (Use Form 8995 to figure your qualified business income deduction) is showing as available.   If you are using the desktop software, please make sure it is updated.    @NickyKyle

Hi Dawn

 

I have updated my desktop software and yet it still states the Form 8995 is being worked on by the government and when I looked again it states Form 1040: Individual is also waiting for the government.  

 

Thanks, @DawnC

I wish I had known of 8995 form before I filed.  How can I fix this.

It depends.  

  • If you have not filed your return yet, and you only need Form 8995, which is the simplified version, it is ready to go. 
  • If you need any part of Form 8995-A, which requires more details, it is scheduled to be available today.  
  • If you did file your return and you do not see the qualified business income deduction (QBID) on your return, you can amend your return. 
    • Look at line 13, Form 1040.

Do NOT amend until your original return has been accepted by the IRS and you should allow some time for them to process the return.

  • Form 1040-X will be available on February 23rd.
