Does anyone know if there is a problem with the e-file system?
I transmuted one yesterday at 5:30PM, and as of now it is still showing transmitted.
-
I have been trying to customize the client letter, and I am having difficulty with it.
I cannot seem to find the options, I want to change the option that allows ATX 2012 tp decide, because it does not work. I efile all my returns, as I suppose everyone does, and I have to go in and change every return to read this. Can this be changed or not?
I have also tried to get the preparer information to be centered on the letter but can not get to do so.
any help will be appreciated.
thank you

Ok, I have a woman who came to me in 2009. She is a 1120S, in 09 she had 52,000 in income.
But in 2010, 2011 and now 2012 she had 0 income, but the business still has expenses she is paying.
At what point can she no longer file and take a loss?
It will all depend on what kind of business it is, and what the expenses are.

HAS ANYONE TRIED OR IS USING ONE DESK?
I HAVE TRIED TO USE IT ON A RETURN, AND FIND IT VERY CUMBERSOME TO USE. OF ALL THE TAX PROGRAMS I HAVE EITHER USED OR TRIED, IT IS THE FIRST ONE THAT WHEN YOU ENTER AN AMOUNT OR AMOUNTS IN A FORM YOU HAVE TO SAVE IT.
WHEN YOU DO ENTER AN ASSET IT IS EASY, BUT IT DOES NOT SHOW YOU THE DEPRECIATION RIGHT THERE, YOU HAVE TO GO TO ANOTHER SCREEN TO MAKE SURE IT IS CORRECT,
THE PROGRAM IS BASED ON GOING FROM ONE SCREEN, SAVING THE ENTRIES, THEN GOING TO A DIFFERENT SCREEN TO VIEW THEM. NOT LIKE PEEK ON SOME PROGRAMS.
I TRIED A RETURN WITH A SCHEDULE C AND FORM 8829, I THOUGHT I ENTERED EVERYTHING CORRECTLY, AND SAVED IT BUT THE 8829 DID NOT FLOW THROUGH TO THE SCH C AND I CANNOT FIND OUT WHY.
AND WHEN THEY SAID THE CONVERSION WILL NOT CONVERT THE APPRECIABLE ASSETS, IT LEFT ME DUMBFOUNDED, I WANTED TO USE IT ON A RETURN THAT I HAVE ABOUT 25 ASSETS.
I GUESS I WILL STICK WITH ATX FOR NOW, I HAVE HAD GOOD LUCK THIS TAX SEASON WITH VERY FEW INCIDENTS.

Just did one per suggestion of schirallicpa.
Right click of 8582 tab "discard", save return, close return, reopen return, create efile - worked for me.

There's an exception for rental real estate. If you meet all of the following conditions the form isn't required.
* Rental real estate activities with active participation were your only passive activities.
* You have no prior year unallowed losses from these (or any other passive) activities.
* Your total loss from the rental real estate activities was not more than $25,000 ($12,500 if married filing separately and you lived apart from your spouse all year).
* If you are married filing separately, you lived apart from your spouse all year.
* You have no current or prior year unallowed credits from a passive activitiy.
* Your modified adjusted gross income (see the instructions for line 7, later) was not more than $100,000 (not more than $50,000 if married filing separately and you lived apart from your spouse all year).
* You do not hold any interest in a rental real estate activity as a limited partner or as a beneficiary of an estate or a trust.
So, simply having rental losses with active participation wouldn't be enough to require the 8582 (unless the modified AGI is over 100k).
David, how do I go about making it possible to make ATX accept this return without the 8582 form?

I thought it had to completed and submitted if the taxpayer has a passive activity regardless of whether the activity has a profit or loss
I have 2 returns that cannot be e-filed without it.
I tried to delete it and the loss on sch E would not carry to the 1040
Yet I had another return with a sch E loss and it did npt even ask for the form.
Is this a bug in the program?

Does anyone know when it will be available for e-filing?

This may not sound right but how do you open the client letter and edit it?
I have gone to Client commubnication manager and highlighted the letter and clicked on open, and nothing happened. Am I doing this right?
:wall: -
1. CLIENT LETTER = is it NOT AUTOMATIC IF RETURN IS E-FILED for the letter to show this?
2. ENTERING PREPARER AND ERO ON FORM, CAN IT BE DONE AUTOMATICALLY
3. 1099R ERROR - BOX 14a STATE 1 TAX WITHHELD MUST BE GREATER THAN STATE 1 DISTRIBUTION. Is there any workaround or do I have to wait on tech support?

I'm in the process of installing update 4.0.0.17 and it looks like it is going to take more than an hour to download it. The same thing happened last night with 4.0.0.16. Are the downloads taking longer now or is it my computer, or maybe my satalite connection? I live in a rural area and can't get cable or DSL. Just wondering if others are experiencing this.
I just downloade it and it was done in about 10 min, I only have DSL

there are fixes for the rollover problems posted on the official ATX board at MyATX. It has to do with corrupted files/forms. Do a search over there.
I was on the jphone yesterday for 5 hours and the tech got into my computer and went through every thing imagenable and could not fine any reason why it will not work.
He said that he knows of at least 2 other clients having the sane problem.
:wall: -
still at this time I cannot roll over any returns.
I have been on the line for hours on end and no solution.
I have tried to prepare a return by using copy and paste to save time typing, but all I get is errors when checking the return. It seems that this method will not work.
Does anyone have this same problem?

How do we get a refund on this non-working software?
I don't know if it will work, but I have sent a certified letter to Karen Bills as per their instructions on their website.
If I don't get a refund I will report them to the BBB.
