Solved

I am an accounting instructor starting to use this for class. How can you get the program to populate a 1040-SR instead of a 1040? The birthdate input qualifies for SR.

Is there an override to force it. I thought putting in the birthdate would populate a 1040-SR automatically.

The SR is primarily for use by self prepared returns. For professionals, it is a waste of pixels (or maybe even, heaven forbid,  PAPER!)

If you really want the 1040 SR you must do an override.

Thank you. That was very helpful. It is required for the problem my students are doing in their textbook and I wanted to make sure I could figure it out and guide them.

A waste of paper. Another "modernization" of the IRS to make life easier for it's participants in this great game of taxation.
