8283 NOT efiled with federal return

I am new to Turbo Tax and am disappointed to see from prior posts that 8283 may not be auto efiled with my electronic 1040 federal return. Yet the IRS demands that this is done for folks that need to fill out a 8283. To me, this defeats the purpose of my switching over to Turbo Tax as I will have to manually file my taxes now.

I know that attaching form 8283 to an electronic 1040 return can be done as my Tax Accountant does it. This form is growing in popularity. I am surprised that Turo Tax has not yet fixed this issue.

Is this still true or have you all fixed this for 2024?

Thanks so much for your help!

For tax year 2024, the Form 8283 Noncash Charitable Contributions can be e-filed according the forms availability website here - https://form-status.app.intuit.com/tax-forms-availability/formsavailability?albRedirect=true&product=Turbotax_online&bu=cg

Why is this an ongoing issue?

There were issues with 8283 last year, the form hasn't been revised, per the IRS website since 12/2023.

$500 isn't a high threshold anymore, I donate a few pieces of clothing, and some books, and I'm over the limit. Two years in a row with the same forms, same issues, and no IRS revisions to blame it on.

Been a TT filer since it was a DOS program; wondering if it's time to jump ship.

Thanks for your responses on this 8283 form. We really appreciate it.

Being new to TT, I am a little concerned that the date for the 8283 form availability keeps slipping. It was 1/16, then I think 1/25, then 1/30 I think, then now 2/6. Do I have any guarantee from you that this form will indeed be ready to file this year in time?

Thanks for your help!

I just want to update my own question. I efiled yesterday using form 8283 (public stocks to charity in my case) and it worked like a champ. I just had to wait until the form was available. Perhaps the other issues are with the online version or when folks donate non public stock donations...... but mine was fine.
