While I agree it is pointless to write COVID on the top of the tax return, there ARE legitimate things to write on top.

ProSeries USED to allow it.  I think they changed it when the 1040 changed in 2018, and no longer allow it.

On the other hand, I have no idea if that header was e-filed or if it was just a convenience for mailing returns.  And even if it was e-filed, I have no idea if the IRS did anything with it.

 

And unfortunately, it is pointless to make suggestions for product improvement.  They have essentially told us they have no intention of even looking at them.
