NJ 1065 with direct debit--There was a problem with the NJ 1065 returns that contained direct debit. In certain conditions, the debit was not taken out of the taxpayer's account. This affects 96 returns total. ***We received word today that we will need to get these returns re-transmitted by the EROs after they've made some specific changes to the returns. The CS Dept will be contacting each affected ERO with instructions; please do not attempt to resend until CS has contacted you. The state of NJ has assured us that these returns will be considered timely filed. Massachusetts business efiling after an extension is efiled and accepted--We have identified a problem with the MA business efile system and we've identified the work-around solution. Problem: Once you send a MA business extension electronically and that efile is accepted, our EFC system is not allowing you to send the MA business efile return. The Work around is this: You must email or call the CS Dept with the affected EINs. CS requests that our EFC team "unlock" the EFC for these EINs, which will allow you to efile the MA business return. efiling 2006 990 returns--We do not support the efile of prior year 990 returns. The IRS has told us they will grant no waivers to allow these to be paper-filed. You must use another software package to efile the 990 returns for 2006. December 2007 to present we have a message posted to the e-file area of the support site explaining which prior year returns can be efiled and which ones cannot. The message reads in part, "The IRS EMS system will be unavailable December 28, 2007 to January 7, 2008 for annual filing season updates. All business return types (1120, 1120S, 990, 990PF, 7004, 8868, 940, 941 & 940) will be unavailable for transmission during this time period. In addition, when the IRS makes this system available on January 7, 2008, they will allow only 940, 941 & 944 e-files to be transmitted. All other prior-year business return types (1120, 1120S, 990, 990PF, 8868 & 7004) will be unavailable for transmission through the ATX software. However, you can continue to e-file prior-year 940, 941 & 944 return types."

I haven't received it yet..

I apologize for not being clear. The partnership was dissolved and land was sold to partner for book value. My client recevied extra amount than the basis. Is that considered capital gains..?

Joelgilb, Forgot to metnion that my client recevied more money than his contribution. Shouldn't that be considered as Capital gains rather than Oridnary Income.?

I have a client who had taken an extension because he did not have K-1 from partnership(Which is prepare by partner's accountant). The partnership purchased 2 seperate land lots in anticipation of building house and selling it. Some how the dpartnership did not last and split. My client sold his share of partnership to the other partner with a gain. The gain is showing on K-1 as Ordinary Income. Is this correct..? Just want to check with the experts.

I'm using MYFAX. you can check it out at myfax.com. have been using it for over a year. Cost is $10.00/Mo with 100 send and 200 receive pages. You get a toll free number and can fax from your computer. It works great. I'm very happy with it.

ON 1040NR, Use data TAB where you can put date of NJ residency.

Are you using 1040NR..? Please use 1040NR and enter in COL B income from NJ Source.

Thank you both for the information. Yes I am able to get historical data from CAO by changing the system date. I also evaluated QB last year but QB Payroll does not have MICR check printing. I believe you can only use pre printed checks.

RJM, I'm on the lookout for a new write up / payroll package. which one do you use.? can you please tell us about pros and cons..?

Just got off the phone with Bandy at ATX/CCH. My old Client accounting program expired and they will not generate product ID to view Historical data. The problem is CCH only bought ATX and not Client Accounting Program. Even though I converted most clients Payroll historical data is not coverted. Never heard such a ridiculous Statment from a company the size of CCH. Is it possible that once ATX Tax program is discuntinued we will not be able to get the data..? Sorry !! Just frustrated..

I got one too yesterday. haven't tried it yet. DevM

$5 per sale that would mean 5K for a total of 1000 Sales.. WOW.. Who is going to pay that kind of money..?

I have a client with close to 1000 Trades. Has W2. K1 etc.. Trades are in Xcel format downloaded.. What would be reasonable charge in NJ..?

When you change / print any forms the file will automatically be rejected. This is to ensure that we re-create the efile before transimitting. This is actually a better function that I like.

Tell them "Synthetic will get them more rebate"..
