joanmcq Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Last year I filed the 2553 with the corp's initial return. Marked the box saying the S status was being elected with the return & attached the 2553 by PDF, Now I go to file the extension and its rejected; says EIN must match entity type. I know I'll have to call the IRS tomorrow, but anyone else have this happen? now I wonder if they got the 2553? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMovichEA Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 I have the same exact problem with an S-Corp first filed in 2011. E-filed the first year no problem. Last year got the entity type error so I paper filed the extension. I have the 2553 from the attorney and everything seems ok. Paper filed the return last year and the client didn't have any correspondence with the IRS, but when I tried to e-file the extension just last week got the same error again.

ILLMAS Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Same thing happened to me, I will just going to paper file the 1120 C and 1120S extension for the same client, who know if they sent out the form 2553. I am like this poor lady, I don't have time for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
