Why is TurboTax telling me the direct debit option is not available for my federal return?

One factor is that one of the forms is not yet ready. Could that be why?

Yes, that is possible. Also, not all states accept direct debit. To check whether your state does, click the link: What are my options for getting my state refund or for paying any state taxes I owe?

 

Keep in mind that state return usually begin with Federal Adjusted Gross Income. The IRS will first begin receiving returns February 12, 2021. February 12, 2021 will be the earliest time the state tax return can be received.
