When filing my CA state taxes it's stating my tax forms aren't ready (Form 3801). Where do I find this form?

Please take a look at the California State Forms Availability list; as you will see here, form 3801 will be available on 3/3/22.

Updated: Thanks for the explanation. I understand that after the forms are delayed by federal and/or state agencies, it takes time to have it available within the Turbo Tax program - tax returns are complicated and you can't just stick a new form in without a lot of editing and testing of the software. Thanks for your work. 

 

Previous: When I check the FTB site for forms, the 2021 form 3801 is available now. It says nothing about waiting another month.

I too found the form on line. Why can't turbotax update the software until a month from now? I had to hold off on filing my state tax return because of this. See link below to the form.

Has Form 3801 been updated?

Please see the Help Article here for State Form Availability.

Yes, please make Form 3801 availability a priority for your product development team.... it was originally showing a 2/10 availability then it slipped to 3/3.  It's bad enough the IRS is taking their sweet time in issuing refunds, and this adds more delay to getting a CA state refund as well.

There are different reasons why the forms take longer to show up within TurboTax. The forms availability table is where we update the information as we receive it from taxing agencies. We make it our goal to keep updated on the most recent data.  

 

For additional information, it would be necessary to contact customer support.

CA form 3801 is not a new form. Are you suggesting it is CA that is delaying TurbTax's ability to load a recurring state form? Also I do not have any passive income or loss. So how can I communicate to TurboTax DIRECTLY to see that there is not a software glitch!! I don't want to hear from experts. I WANT TO HEAR FROM TURBOTAX!!

Electronic filing is no longer an option for me on TT, not just due to TTs delay integrating the updated FTB form 3301 but the also the total lack of support for Federal forms 8996 and 8997.
