The problem is we should not have to manually prepare the form.  Proseries has known the form is coming.  You would have thought they would have been a bit proactive based on the irs draft and been in a position to tweek it once IRS finalized the form.

And if the programmers are not competent enough to have the form ready in a timely manner, you would hope they would provide some guidance re: alternatives that IRS would accept.  We have always attached a pdf of the basis worksheet (from the S-corp module) to the 1040.  It would be nice to know if that would be acceptable to IRS for this first year.
