  1. About 40 years ago I drove over the road truck. Soup can with pillar candle kept cab warm (warmer) in sub zero weather. Stranded in snow in Wyoming. More concerned about freezing than carbon Monoxide.
  2. I thought maybe I was special and they were holding out on my screen. We still do not have network up and running so moot point anyhow
  3. My Solutions center/download program only has 2012. as of this moment 0900 mst No worries for us, IT has not got new equipment configured yet..
  4. Eating lunch at local diner, Operating a garage. Owner of diner brought out a small tv and set it on hostesses stand. Almost all businesses closed rest of day.
  5. Ignore, scam. Reference IRS communications, All initial communications are by letter. Calling Personal Phone?
  6. I'd drive a 100 miles for it but not 500
  7. If they fall under the HIPPA act tey must be subject to Graham Leach Bailey and be subjected to NCIS and Adverse background checks. Does not sound like HHS is aware of requirements.
  8. Just a workable product. Enhancements seem to complicate things. I use ATX mainly because of input method and having ALL forms fed and state.
  9. Southern Arizona low 80's yesterday normal mid 90s today low 90s no triple digits till next week. might have to service furnace
  10. I have ad CAF number for years. Never filed a form. Just filed POA or 8821 and they issued me a CAF number. Have RTRP but never thought about joining the two.
  11. Kinda what I think about "cloud" services and security. ATX or any other program or provider.
  12. Are we going to postpone due dates until IRS gets the info in their system?
  13. Howsome ever, I understand the word macro but I would not even to begin to understand how to create a "macro". why would I buy a software program to do a job that I have to do workarounds like I did with ATX this year. I tried Drake last summer and after the seminar and all that I could not even begin a return and then discovered that it would not prepare my transaction tax reports that I do monthly. I could do those by hand but at the same price for an all inclusive prep program that does not think like I do?
  14. from turbotax support Efile rejects 0510, IND-509/512, F1040/A/EZ-510, F1040/A-512, F1040/A-513, F1040A-145, F1040SSPR-512 Updated: 3/29/2013 Article ID: SLN12037 Your e-filed return is rejected with error codes 0510, IND-509, IND-512, F1040-510, F1040A-510, F1040EZ-510, F1040-512, F1040A-512, F1040A-513, F1040A-513, F1040A-145, or F1040SSPR-512, along with this explanation: This taxpayer or taxpayer's spouse has been claimed as a dependent on someone else's return (according to returns the IRS has already received). Make sure that no other person can claim this taxpayer or spouse as a dependent (for example, the parents or grandparents), and that the dependent's Social Security number has not been used on another return as the primary or secondary taxpayer's SSN (the persons listed first and second on the return). Possible Causes Another taxpayer has already claimed you or your spouse as a dependent (most common reason) The dependent you are trying to claim has already filed his/her own return (second most common reason) The same Social Security number was entered for a taxpayer and a dependent on the return A Social Security number was entered incorrectly. So evidently somebody has already used one of the primary ss on another return. Possibility on young marrieds, carryover on parents return, or somebody filed without telling the other party.. usually in our office it is the 18-20 year old dependent that took their own exemption. If all else fails, call the e-file hotline.
  15. I can attest to fact that OS and or age of machines or servers has nothing to do with the interoperability of the software program. In desperation we upgraded all 3 workstations to win 7 64 bit, with SSD, New server with ssd dedicated only to ATX 2012. Still agonizingly slow. Memory hog? this thing never releases memory, and approaching 1 gig it will crash every time. Lose track of what your intending to do, clients wanting whatif scenarios, not a chance. All in All, while I do not have final numbers and won't for a few weeks, I suspect that this program costs us 30,000 dollars this year. (and it is only April 15, 6 months to go)
  16. No time for anlysis but first things I think of is AMT and recapture of deprciation. Or there is a pg 2 sched E offsetting. or program is screwweed up.
  17. After the 15th me and mine could probably give them an evaluation of a 100 items that did not work correctly and none that did work consistently. Programs still crash on efile creation, forms do not update when reopening slooooow lost assets, poor communication within program, I am tired I am still a month behind
  18. Just another of many time wasting events,
  19. re losing info, Either tech support or the last update turned off the auto save preference. Lost multiple returns. (info therein)
  20. If the client has the time,m I have them call and get the 120 day option. Otherwise as it has been stated...wait on the bill.
  21. If you did not get through, the procedure that works for us is from within the return look at the return tab box called imports middle one is assets it will open box to browse to wherever your data is called fam data open it and there is another data click on it and it will search for the assets. somehow we have 3 data files. takes awile but so far have always recovered.
  22. The consequences are that I am ready to shoot somebody. I think that if I had advance knowledge of this fiasco I would have been up front about it. Yesterdays update was an improvement until we lost three extensive returns in the period of 4 hours. No auto save etc. Features that have worked for years no longer work, preferences and options are not retained. I have no idea what I would have done with advance info but at least I would have a choice in how much grief I wanted to suffer.
  23. thats what 20-30 hours a week with tech support gets you.
  24. We have prepared this return for several years, but I cannot remember how to exclude the Public service retirement from the Alabama income. Any Alabama preparers?
  25. From the return manager, returns, then redownload forms in marked return. (down towards bottom of list.)
