The bad news is that the IRS has yet again delayed the release of some forms and instructions. However, the good news is that we are going ahead with our release. Based on our communications with the IRS we think the risk is very low that there will be any surprises. We are finalizing the testing now and should complete everything this week.
Assuming everything goes well (and I am pretty confident) we should be able to begin posting the files on FAS SupportPlus Online by late Friday but it will likely take through the weekend to complete. You should see all the files available by the end of the day Monday, January 12th with an email announcement going out on the 12th or 13th.
Our CD shipments should begin about a week later. To ship out CDs to all customers takes about 3-4 weeks so I encourage you to download it if you need it quickly.
Thanks,
Kelly
