I am sure quite a few of you use the billing invoice. In prior years if you typed in the preparer date (it would not change) and then linked it to te date on the invoice then the invoice date would not change. This is important if you are billing a client and want to send a reminder, then you have the original date that the invoice was prepared not 'todays date'. However, this year ATX has decided to spell out the month. Looks nice but you cannot link the field. You cannot type in a date. You have to unprotect the form, type in the date, then protect the form. You have to do this for every invoice you prepare. This is as per "Support" that I got after 35 minutes on hold. Talk about making things easier for us.

Go to MYATX and look up you client efile. When it comes up click on "select". You will then see it. I wonder if they are grabbing it to figure out how much to charge us.

I have filed many late NY CT-6 elections. Just use the same Rev. Proc. as you used on the federal. Also check the box if the federal election is pending.

E file is really on the fritz this year. I have spent several hours on the phone with our so called tech support. No Help. They do not know what is happening. However, at MYATX you can get info that is not syncing with your tax program. There is something there that you will be surprised to find. It seems that ATX/CCH has decided to capture the amount that you bill your client. What this has to do with efiling I do not know, especially when it is none of their business and you are not using their $15 sevice to collect your fee.
