Lee B Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Oregon start accepting business efiles on January 23rd. Currently ATX has posted a projected release date February 27th, 5 weeks into the tax season. I would really appreciate it, if any Drake users could check if Drake is now accepting Oregon business efiles and starting when ? I took a good look at Drake after the ATX 2012 disaster but stayed with ATX. This is just not acceptable ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklcpa Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 I'm not going to load the OR program to see, but maybe this screenshot will be helpful. Why not call Drake and ask to be sure? They are very friendly and should be glad to answer any questions you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Yes, definitely call support. I called about Mass; I can e-file but paper forms are not yet approved (by the state) so I can't print my clients' copies yet. Had to settle for MA screenshots to confirm info before submitting. Before attempting to efile I wanted to check the state status. They answered quickly and explained it all in short order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee B Posted February 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 I checked with Drake and they started transmitting Oregon business efiles in late January. They usually have several seminars in Oregon in early to mid May. I will definitely be attending one of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall it was about 400.00 off +/-. Also if you renew early you get that same discount each year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abby Normal Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 MD entities were listed to be ready on 2/17 but became ready earlier this week. I complained on the forums about one MD personal property form that was not ready yet and ATX responded and got it done that day for me. Squeaky wheel! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abby Normal Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 We had a squeaky refrigerator door and a smart Guinea Pig who made the connection. He'd go nuts whenever we opened the fridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 We had a series of them, that ALL learned that the rustle of a plastic grocery bag meant parsley on the way. Parsley to a Guinea Pig has the same effect as ice cream and cookies to a five year old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only response from multiple inquires is a link to the ATX Efile Status Chart, which tells me what I already knew. Wait until February 27th. After 20 years I will be changing tax software !
