  1. Last night I read about someone else having this problem. I tried switching printers; nothing happens. Can Print page, but not return. Has anyone found a solution? :scratch_head:
  2. Thanks KC. As per my recommendations, they are in agreement that she will get the refund as the stocks were gifted to her by her parents before she married. I try my best to do the job right; but these kinds of messes are not conductive to a smooth tax season right at this time with a due date of April 8. I have another almost identical one on my desk which will be a wash; another divorce, another stock sale of the wife's stocks. However, they are local and in complete agreement. Actually, are filing joint this year so much easier to deal with. Also, no name changes. Again, thanks for your reassurance. The lady I spoke to last night was NOT helpful in any way.
  3. But, some of the enhancements they list sound pretty interesting. And the "no price increase" is a definite positive. Just the fact that we will have the program for another year is a deciding factor for me, I have ten years of ATX icons on my desktop now and have no desire to change programs ever again. That button has never bothered me one bit. Some things you have to learn to live with.
  4. My problem with the CP2000 (as if we need these kinds of problems right now) is that my couple is divorced; both living in excess of 200 miles away from me and not near or speaking to each other. The wife signed the CP2000 giving me permission to handle it. After 45 minutes on hold; I got a "real" person. I had to fax her the page with the signature only to be told that she needed both signatures in order to help me. I just called him and he faxed me his signature for what it's worth. I will have to mail them the whole mess and hope that my cover letter is clear enough to explain the situation to someone. They actually don't owe any tax as they have over a $4000 loss on the stock sale that they didn't report. Will the IRS calculate the additional refund.???? And what about the carryover loss to 2008? This couple sold the stocks to pay for their BIG wedding and were married less than 7 months before they split. End of sob story!!!!!! :huh:
  5. I just sent two e-files minutes ago.
  6. He got me better than good. I felt the blood drain from my brain and started crying; as well as having that icky sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. I have been going on the other board about once a day to see if I can help anyone out and there is not even a glimmer of comparison to this board. Oh My God, Eric!!!!
  7. That's all there is to it. When you create the e-file, just check the box for the 4868.
  8. All of mine so far have the same reply date of Apr 8.; some are right, some we can correct and some are a mixture. Primarily, sales of stock and dividend income that were not reported. Most of the stock sales are a loss. I plan on calling the contact person named on the CP2000 before I file or do anything.
  9. If it created, the odds are really good.....
  10. Actually, I am having a pretty good day. One of my clients stopped by this AM and cut all of our hair (myself, husband and son). She had donuts and coffee with us and left us 3 gift certificates to the local Chinese Restaurant. So, hubby has gone to get Chinese food for lunch. She also picked up their tax return, which is a complicated one, paid for it and all was well. Yesterday was my crabby day; people dropping in without appts, clients coming early while prior client was still here and another one knocking on the back door all at once. Sunday was even worse, with the doorbell and phone ringing simultaneously. When you have a home office, what part of Sunday don't they understand? But this morning made it all better; so what kind of happenings can I expect for this afternoon?
  11. He has gone over 1000 posts. Congratulations!
  12. Maybe you should have let WI go piggyback and PA by itself. Also, did you check the drop-down box on line 33, where it chooses the other state from the OS?
  13. It should go, Sara, unless it is a 1NPR with income other than wages and interest.
  14. For some reason, I don't believe you can e-file when the death is in the current year.; only if it occurred in the tax year you are preparing. ie: 2008.....deaths in the tax year do require a 1310.
  15. My understanding is that Disability benefits are not taxable if the insurance is paid for by the individual with after tax dollars.
  16. They did announce that they would not be sending them this year. I am surprised that WI is still sending theirs out as they never even provided envelopes. I have gotten into the habit of preparing them from the software.
  17. I just got mine last week at irs.gov. The whole thing took less than 20 minutes.....They gave me the number immediately.

    NT Sort Of

    Little did I know when I started this thread that it would turn out to be so "SWEET"! I haven't made homemade cinnamon rolls since last summer. We have to have raisens in ours.
  19. I believe so! Number to call is 1-800-829-4933
  20. I have had one in Limbo since January.......too many other things to worry about right now.
  21. Happy Birthday, Friend...... :bday:
  22. I just mailed another one today!
  23. I just had one call and say, "I'm bringing my stuff over right away on my way to town!" I said, "OK, I have appointments but you can drop it off." She said, "Oh, I'm so excited to find out what the results are!" I said, "Yes, you and 2500 other people!" Do they really all believe that we are just sitting here waiting for them to come in? She just came and while I was at the door, somebody faxed me their Sales Tax to file electronically. I am NOT going to let this get to me!!!!!!!!! :wacko:
  24. I can't get them to work either.......just like last year. Don't have time to fool around so am mailing them. I did, however, apply for an EIN since more and more places are asking for it. DUH!!!! Joan, nice reply on the CP2000 as I have 2 sitting here now. Thanks!
  25. I had a client this year who had six inherited IRAs from his brother. They all went to line 15b as taxable with no penalty. I just checked the return. Each one had to be entered separately. Just looked at the 1099s and they all say "Taxable Amount Not Determined." They are coded 4 with the IRA box checked.
