Thank you!!!

Can some one recommend a Tax attorney in FL..? I have a friend who was audited for sales tax and is looking for an attorney. Preferably in Tallahassee or Jacksonville area.

PM me. I have done a few. I can walk you thru..

When I upgraded from WIn2016 to Win2019, I copied all backup files of ATX and Payroll from 2013 to the new server. If you have a need to use Payroll from 2015 onwards, you will need to install the software, apply license keys for each year and restore from backup for each year. I also have PDF copies of all 1099's, W2s and Qtrly reports so no issues.

I have Lenovo laptop with windows 11 and installed ATX 2017 thro ATX2022. All have been running fine.

I think it was updated around 2/8

It does show as distribution to Other Adjustment account.. so in your case it will show as distribution from 71K (Other addition). Clink of line 7 (Distribution) M2 and you will see the flow.

you add Loan Forgiveness to AAA as other additions (i.e additional paid in Capital). If the EOY basis is still negative.. no Distribution. If there is distribution it will go as carryover Loss.

you need to put it on Sch K (Page 3 of 1120S line 16B the amount that is forgiven. ATX program has been fixed to populate M1 Line 5a and M2 line 3 (Other additions)

It is populating based on what you have in E-file tab in Preparer manager.

Looks like ATX has fixed the issue with current release of updates.

Yes.

NJ PTE payments must be made online.. https://www.state.nj.us/treasury/taxation/ptepmtsystem.shtml

I have opened an issue with ATX add GP on M2 Line 7. will post the response.

In my opinion ATX is working fine as far as adding GP to M1 Line 3, however it should also deduct on Line 7 of M2 unless they left it out due to some other adjustments needed 743(b)..?

Based on the revised instructions you also need deduct the GP on Line 7 of M-2 See IRS instructions: M-1 Line 3. Guaranteed Payments Include on this line guaranteed payments shown on Schedule K, lines 4a and 4b (other than amounts paid for insurance that constitutes medical care for a partner, a partner's spouse, a partner's dependents, and a partner's children under age 27 who aren't dependents). M-2 Line 7. Other Decreases (Itemize) Enter on line 7 the sum of all other decreases to the partners' tax-basis capital accounts during the year not reflected on line 6. Also, if the aggregate net positive income from all section 743(b) adjustments reported on Schedule K, line 11, “Other income (loss),” was included as an increase to income in arriving at net income (loss) on line 3, report that amount as a decrease on line 7. For these purposes, “net positive income from all section 743(b) adjustments” means the excess of all section 743(b) adjustments to income allocated to the partner that increase the partner's taxable income over all section 743(b) adjustments to income that decrease the partner's taxable income. Likewise, if line 3 includes income from guaranteed payments reported on Schedule K, line 4c, include that amount as a decrease on line 7

Ok. I bought a new laptop and installed ATX from 2017 - 2021. All of them are working fine (Just the same as Win 10) Dont see much difference in the way programs open and work.

2017 unclaimed refunds – deadline extended to May 17 For tax year 2017 Federal income tax returns, the normal April 15 deadline to claim a refund has also been extended to May 17, 2021. The law provides a three-year window of opportunity to claim a refund. If taxpayers do not file a return within three years, the money becomes property of the U.S. Treasury. The law requires taxpayers to properly address, mail and ensure the tax return is postmarked by the May 17, 2021, date.

Link expires in 24 hrs.

Agreed. It is time consuming. In December, I bought a new Server with R2019 and did that as ATX 2020 will not install on R2012. I only put 3 years on other workstations except mine (Which has 10yrs). Still have old server as back up for prior years and connected to other work stations(in case if needed).

Why not do a complete install of 2019, rather than upgrade. Copy your Data Drive to external drive. Complete new 2019 install and copy from external drive. Microsoft has Server 2019 software (Essential) for $529.

I am Exporting in CSV from 2019 and Import in 1099-NEC. Saves a lot of time when you have many inputs.

If you Rollover a client you also need to click on items in other Data: (Preparers, Payers..etc) I always click on other data and all preparers, companies and Payers get rolled over.

As per NJ Website.. NOTICE: Automatic Extension for 2019 Corporation Business Tax Returns for Certain Fiscal Tax Year Filers 2019 Corporation Business Tax returns (Forms CBT-100, CBT-100U, BFC-1, BFC-1-F, and CBT-100S) are currently in the process of being finalized, which is delaying the start of the filing season.

In addition to the automatic extension, taxpayers can submit the Corporation Business Tax Tentative Return and Application For Extension of Time to File, Form CBT-200-T, which provides a 6-month extension. However, the return will be due 6 months from the original due date.

I think carry forward is only for 10 years.
