Filing Form 114 (FBAR)

PY instructions for accessing Form 114 in Pro Series Basic appear to be outdated.

I am e-filing Form 114, and I have selected the "File Form 114 Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR) electronically".

The instructions via the web page, indicate that by clicking on "State" in the left side menu, an option to select Form 114 will be available.  Such was the case when filing 2023 returns, but I am unable to find that option for the 2024 returns.

I am grateful for any guidance and assistance from the community.

It works for me.  The same as prior years.

I THINK it showed up automatically, but maybe I downloaded it as a new 'state' (top menu, then download new products).

If that still doesn't work, maybe close ProSeries, reboot the computer, and go to your Windows Start Menu, find ProSeries Basic 2024, then "Tools -Repair Updates".
