Under IRC 6161, individual taxpayers and business taxpayers are allowed to request an extension of time for payment of tax shown or required to be shown on a return or for a tax due on a notice of deficiency. In order to be granted this extension, they must file Form 1127, providing evidence of undue hardship, inability to borrow, and collateral to ensure payment of the tax.

A late availability of the form would not allow the business taxpayers to timely understand the new form and instructions. This would then place undue burden on both the taxpayer and the Service as extensions would not be timely available as required by law. This would also add undue taxpayer burden and burden the Service with additional processing costs for the second return.
