tax newbie1 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 I have never e-filed forms 94X before. A few clients ask me if I can e-file for them and I’m thinking why not? I have e-filed forms 1040 and 1120S for a few years now and I’m wondering if I can efile form 94X? or do I need to apply for a new EFIN to e-file these quarterly payroll tax forms. Thank you for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxxcpa Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 I finally managed to e-file Form 941 for the first time the other day. I first had to send in something to my software provider (Drake) to get me a PIN. This was the hardest part since it wouldn't submit, but finally, Technical support had me change the calendar on my computer from the 7/27/12 format to the 07/27/2012 format--then it went through. Next I had to get the client to request some kind of number (by mail) and fax it to me. Then I had to enter that number in my tax program. Then after I prepared the Form 941, I transmitted it and it went through OK. It was immediately accepted by Drake and the next day it was accepted by the IRS. You have to get a client PIN from each client. If there are more than about five clients, you have to get a reporting agent PIN--and you must have an EIN. If you don't have one, you need to get it before applying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
