The site does have the option to stay logged in, and stays that way until the user clears browsing history unless leaving cookies intact. I'm logged in almost all the time. The site also has the ability for a user to log in anonymously too and stay that way.

That's covered on the FinCEN site's BOI page of FAQs. See section D. https://www.fincen.gov/boi-faqs#D_5

I wasn't asking if the preparer must send two emails. Based on what Margaret said here: ...what I meant was, for example, must each party signing the 8879 have his or her own separate email address.

Does a form requring 2 signatures need to have two separate emails?

I am wondering that as well. Also, do you have access to the Drake forum?

Any time is ok with me for the conversion business-wise, but I may have withdrawal during the downtime. As always, thank you for taking care of us so well, Eric.

Oh right, he meant after the program updates. I had that happen once mid-season but hasn't happened since then. I'm more tired than I realized.

What program are you having to sign into again?

Yes, it has been like that almost since the beginning of this season for me. When the program would open, I had no alerts or notifications in that bottom left corner of the manager screen, and I wasn't able to get program updates. I didn't realize this at first because I was only waiting for state approval of a certain form. Also, MS Edge browser window would open on top of the program every time, and I couldn't make the support person or her supervisor understand this. I have never used Edge, and the supervisor's suggestion was for me to try changing to Edge as my default browser, or try Chrome. I could NOT make either of them understand at all that something with my computer's environment was blocking communication from the program to Drake's server, that it was not a browser issue. Finally after about 6 calls the supervisor sent a message to a higher level support person. Very frustrating! We worked on it and thought it was solved with me changing settings in my AV, but the problem reappeared again in late Feb. I ended up changing to a different AV software completely but had only disabled the original one. That worked until I rebooted the computer and a portion related to the original AV's VPN was still enabled, and THAT was the issue.

I haven't had anything from Drake yet. Tax Book's offer came in the mail today.

He's a cute little fluffball.

Yes, please see the instructions to preparing 1099-C and "Who Must File" and the large bold heading under that labeled "Exceptions". It seems that the form's issuance depends on the type of bankruptcy and whether the debt was for business or investment, or if it was for personal use.

Thanks. That's good to know, and so it would be up to Christian to find out the specifics for this student.

Christian, you may be correct. With the AOC, the student must be a degree candidate, and he can't be a candidate for a degree without graduating from HS. Most colleges and universities will not even enroll the student in the degree program without first completing the secondary education. The LLC, on the other hand, can be taken by an eligible student taking course(s) that are part of a degree program, but it does not require that the student be a degree candidate.

Student has to be a degree candidate, and since he hasn't graduated high school yet that would knock him out. No? Even if qualifying, AOC can only be claimed for 4 years. Maybe the parents don't want to claim in a year where the credit would be small.
