We put the requirement to file in the engagement letter, more clearly than past years' one-sentence fbar notice. But we won't do them (nor the fbar; just the 8938s). Preparer penalties can be vicious on anything to do with foreign reporting. I have my areas of specialty, and this ain't one of them.

I had a couple of inquiries pertaining to the BOI, but had NO bearing on tax prep. I refer them to ficen.gov. Only answer I have. I gave up babysitting adults when I passed 80. I was talking to my brother about this sort of thing , he just commented that most of our clients and/or friends have less than half of OUR COMBINED experience. 160 years He maintains that I should not expect them to have what I would consider common sense.

I sent my clients who were subject to the reporting the FinCen guide last fall. I think that guide is well written and clearly explains the process. I told my clients I was providing the guide as a courtesy but I would not be filing for them. I have answered a couple of questions about when to file (my advice, this is an election year and some people are upset by this perceived government overreach - so wait till after the elections to see if anything changes in the law). That is as far as I have gone with advice on the situation. Tom Longview, TX

I will file my own BOI and no more. I will give them a letter so that they are aware of the requirements supported by several pages with more detail. I am not going to answer questions or offer advice. If they have questions or need advice I will refer them to seek out a knowledgeable attorney. FINCEN BOI has nothing to do with accounting, tax law or tax returns. It is not administered by the IRS and our privileges and responsibilities under Circular 230 do not apply.

We are their trusted advisors and even if you are not going to file these for your clients you should still be up on the requirements and be prepared to offer them some advice besides referring them to a government website. There are many accounting groups putting out 1-2 page summaries, in simple plain language for you to send to clients. If you are willing to take this on, it could be a huge money maker for during out slow summer time. We are offering to do the first, initial filing but will not be doing any monthly monitoring. Every accounting group and E&O company is saying to make sure your engagement letters explicitly state that your tax work will not include BOI filings but advise them to educate themselves as to the requirements. Our separate BOI engagement letter will be a few pages long too.

Wow, you guys have to change code in your paid program ? Are we back in the old IRQ DMA days of early PC's

ATX makes a backup when you CLOSE a return, not when you open it. I like to open a return and close it before making any entries so I can restore to a clean file if needed. Also like to close ever 20 minutes or so to make a progress backup. You can run Admin Console to see both your data location and your backup location, but if you haven't changed from the default it will be here: C:\ProgramData\Wolters Kluwer\ATX 2023 Server Note that ProgramData is a hidden folder by default in Windows, but you can change options in View settings in File Explorer to show hidden files and folders.

Go to the ATX program folder and look for ATX.exe.config file. Open it with Notepad Select Ctrl+F (find) and search for Memory. Scroll down and you will see two sets of long numbers with max values. One starts with an 18 and a bunch of numbers behind it the next starts with 16 (print Memory). Change the 1 to a 2 in each set of numbers. Then save it. Make sure you have all the permissions to have full control to save it or it won't save. Try right-clicking the file and choosing Take Ownership, or making a copy of the file, renaming the old file with .old extension, then editing the copy.

I ended up with a personal account to log into for SSA using that login.gov and then I realized there is no longer a link on that page for SSA BSO. I had to Google to find the BSO page and found that my old username show up in a drop down box on the BSO page that allows me to access it and file W-2s. If that hadn't worked, my backup plan was to use an online site to prepare and file them.
