TAXMAN Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I noticed yesterday that in setting up the efile signature form a SID # was already there. When client comes to sign on Monday will that SID # change or will it change when I send it on to EFC? For those that have transmitted did this number change? I did notice over on protax board that said put this number on AFTER acceptance??? What now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tax Prep by Deb Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Stays the same unless IRS rejects, then a new number will be assigned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Pencil Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I noticed yesterday that in setting up the efile signature form a SID # was already thereI I think ATX users should call the company and complain very loudly, as this does not comply with the Instructions for Form 8879. We are required to enter the SID number AFTER filing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are required to enter the SID number AFTER filing. Please tell me ONE instance of the IRS ever checking, verifying or complaining about this fact??? Minutiae!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Pencil Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Please tell me ONE instance of the IRS ever checking, verifying or complaining about this fact??? Minutiae!! I don't know why the IRS changed the procedure this year, but if it is minutiae then why not simply do it the way we're supposed to? I've seen a lot of complaints on this forum about ATX delays and errors and non-compliance. The attitude of service reps seems to be, "it's good enough." And I guess that's true for ATX.
