TT cannot do anything  until the state implements procedures for this, and then approves TT's programming of those procedures. But see this:

Seriously?  You ask this question like minutes after a law was passed.  You must not understand how laws work.  Or software. 

 

It will be a while.  

 

File a state extension.  Although, it is likely that Arkansas will extend the filing deadline for everyone anyway to allow for this - they are going to have to change their forms and all sorts of things before the software makers will even know WHAT exactly to do.
