  1. I've been waiting for responses too, Pat. But I did recall from last year that they do take a while. W-2's never change from "Created" status, though, since they go through AccuWage and then are filed with the SSA and don't go through the EFC at CCH. (Is that enough acronyms for one sentence? Sheesh!)

    Thank you Catherine. Lots of acronyms. I usually file W-2's thru the SSA website. To me, it's lots easier and at least I know they have been accepted.

  2. Help. When I try to file a 7004 I get the message "If either the Preparer's Firm Name or EIN is entered, both must be entered or both must be blank". I don't have a an EIN (just use a PTIN). I override and fill in the Paid Preparer info, using my social as the EIN. After doing this I can efile but this does not seem correct. Is it?

    Thanks, Pat

  3. I'm trying to file a 1099Int (and I have a bunch of 1099Misc waiting) and I get the message "E-filing is not available for any of the forms included in this return" All I have is the Company Info Sheet, which doesn't carry anyplace, one 1099Int and a 1096. What am I doing wrong.

    Thanks Pat

  4. Client has a real estate brokers license but hadn't sold anything in several years. During 07, he was going to start selling again and rejoined MLS, installed phones, logo, registered a name, etc. Then his wife was diagnosed with a rapid spreading cancer and everything stopped. All he sold in 07 was his own property which will go on a Sch D.

    Can he expense the start up expenses on the Sch C since he didn't sell anything or could the expenses be added to the basis of his sold property? Or should they just fall by the wayside?

    Thank you

    Pat Eure, EA

  5. Don't know if I read it correctly and now I can't find it but I thought I saw something from the IRS saying they were not going to send 1040ES vouchers to people that efile? I've not been printing the vouchers, just the record so they know what to pay but now I'm concerned that vouchers won't be sent.

    Thanks Pat

  6. Hello,

    I would like to print "notes" that I made in 2006 so that I can delete them. They rolled over to 2007 and are not applicable to 2007 and besides, I want to put in new notes - provided they can be printed.

    Does anybody know how? Thank you Pat

    Thank you for answering. I was hoping there was a way I could print them before I deleted them.

  8. >>Does ATX have a dependant worksheet?<<

    You mean a worksheet to determine whether you provided more than half of a person's support? Worksheet 3-1 on page 32 of Pub 17 has been around for ages (IRS stole it from H&R Block decades ago), and there is nothing better. Photocopy it and go to work with a pencil (and eraser). It was originally designed for what is now the qualifying relative support test, but with a little thought you can use it for qualifying child as well. Besides giving an excellent breakdown of support factors, it is how we know that AFDC and SSI are considered to be third party support.

    Thank you. I use the one in Pub 17 but I was hoping ATX had one that I couldn't find..
