Jack from Ohio Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Any of you CA professionals want to chime in here... I keep getting an error when trying to create a CA e-file for a 2011 return: “The year of Taxpayer Signature Date must equal current processing year.” I have tried many dates, and nothing seems to work. Does this mean that CA is not accepting 2011 returns by e-file? Been waiting on an e-mail reply from ATX, but still waiting. Just need to know if it must be mailed.

When I have had this problem, the first thing I have done is to make sure my 2011 ATX program is updated. If yes, then I make sure the date next to the ERO signature line of the FTB 8879 is a 2014 date. If yes on both of these, you will probably have to paper file.

Jack from Ohio Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Tech support just reported that ATX only supported Legacy returns for CA in 2011. Thus, it must be paperfiled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Pencil Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Does this mean that CA is not accepting 2011 returns by e-file? Not exactly. Franchise Tax Board allows it, but it's up to the software company whether they want to provide that service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
