The "solution" is to print page the missing pages and merge them into the return. The real solution would be for ATX to remove all the code that says not to print certain pages. I submitted an enhancement if you want to comment your support and/or experience with pages not printing. https://community.atxinc.com/forums/thread/261770.aspx

At 30 pages a minutes that's 1,350 pages. I'd just give them a PDF.

Printed an 1120S and had 3 statements for 4562 selected to print (Section 179, Use of Vehicles and 4562 Statement) and only the Use of Vehicles page printed. Does anyone here think ATX should be deciding which pages I can and can't print? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Yes. I don't verify my clients' list of donations to their receipts. They don't even always give me their receipts. But they do sign my engagement letter.

Not that I know of and doubtful that it exists. This was communicated by the IRS to ATX and shared by an ATX employee on the official forum.

Your client was audited because the numbers on the return triggered some program to kick it out for review. That does not mean that the IRS looked at the PDF that was attached to the return.

In an upcoming release this will become a permanent change. The IRS is requiring proof of the basis calculation going forward. They want to see a PDF attached of the basis calculation for all S Corp interests. https://community.atxinc.com/forums/permalink/261706/261703/ShowThread.aspx#261703 Me: About. Damn. Time. Over the years I've gotten many S corp returns where the prior preparers were deducting losses in excess of basis, and not showing distributions in excess of basis as capital gains. Also, will be nice to have finally basis calcs for K1s from other preparers and for new S corp clients, although I won't really trust the calcs.

Scan the appraisal to a PDF. Choose E-file MENU and Attach PDF. Scroll to the form 8283 click on an appropriate paper clip. In your case there isn't one so I'd go with Donee Org Ack.\ Ignore warning from ATX that your PDF is too big, and just remember this as the one time you've ever heard that in your life.

Yes. No.

I've just scanned and attached before. Either way, IRS isn't looking at it.

It didn't.

Possibly. Some antivirus software likes to make decisions for you to keep you safer.

Maryland has interactive.marylandtaxes.gov/bServices/OSC At least they finally changed from .com to .gov.

Windows settings are notorious for changing by themselves, although it used to be much worse. Which windows version are you on?

That explains why my parking lot is mostly empty.

Aaaaaaaaaaaand they just switched it back. It was fun while it lasted.

Doubt I'll have time to write it by then. Yeah, and it might just be a bit shy of 'three hours'.

I hope someone warned support!

Just checked the ATX User Guide and it only says to 'drag and drop'. I should start a Hidden Features of ATX book and sell it to users for 45 bucks.

Delete the 8903. That's only done on the 1040. Go to page 3 of 1120S line 12d and press F6 (or click on green arrow). Choose the one that says Dom Prod. I always just enter the income and wages as overrides on lines Q and R. So glad this is gone next year!

If it was rejected, the efile year should be automatically updated. Frustrating as hell that ATX doesn't have an error check on this when creating the efile. Should not be hard to do. BTW, the efile submission is the long number on the EF form. It's easy to see the year and your EFIN in the ID.

Just accidentally learned that you can double click a variable to insert it into a letter. So much easier than dragging and dropping. Why didn't someone tell me this!

The find feature searches quite a few fields in ATX. You can try EIN or street name next time you can't find a return. I learned this because I can't find my own return using name search, because ATX searches the preparer name field. I'd sure like to turn that off.

Was everything ok inside the file? The return name in Return Manager is easy to change, perhaps, too easy.

In ATX this is what you use Customize Master Forms for. I have a very long list of things that need to be checked, unchecked, linked, etc. on many, many forms.
