Considering this announcement was made earlier today by the IRS, if implemented in the program this change would not be immediate. However, the IRS does have instructions for those who have already filed:
"Taxpayers who have already filed for tax year 2018 but qualify for this expanded relief may claim a refund by filing Form 843, Claim for Refund and Request for Abatement and include the statement “80% Waiver of estimated tax penalty” on Line 7."
While the program remains coded for the prior underpayment percentage, you should have the ability to override the penalty amount to the 80% should you wish to do so.

The reason I ask is because the software is still calculating at 90% instead of 85% which was announced in January 2019. How can I override the percentage so that it calculates on the printed form 2210 correctly? I can override the amount, but need to know how to change the 90% to 80%, if possible.

At this time there is not a way to override the actual percentage shown on the form, but any updates made in that regard will be announced here on community.

Lacerte and PTO share the same "engine" PTO updates are typically made after Lacerte.
