jklcpa Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Got a red warning when trying to create 1040 efile. Efile won't create because TP has ptnship K-1 with SE income & sec 179 deduction. ATX populates a Sch SE worksheet with these 2 #s then carries it to Sch SE line 2. The warning said these entries could cause the IRS to recalc the SE tax differently & must paper file this return. It efiled fine LY. I can't believe that this return needs paper filing. This is just not all that uncommon. Should I just put in an override on SE line 2 and dump the entries on the worksheet? Edited to add: I just looked at the return again & that worksheet for the SE looks like it's duplicated. The worksheet appears twice on the page. It's really weird. I think ATX update did something that's creating this error. I checked an older return completed on 3/20 & that worksheet appears only once. Very strange. I just love these late updates when they cause problems. This return is ready to go & now I can't deliver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom half is the statement. Why? No idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklcpa Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I know. I just sent a couple of emails to ATX. Lotta good that's going to do. I wonder if they even read the emails. I have returns that were promised for tonight that are affected. This is the kind of crap that just shouldn't happen, especially with less than 2 weeks to go. I am just so mad right now ....

cpabsd Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I too am having the same problem. I need ATX to fix this as it is holding up 4 returns. This time of year, I need to move the returns out of my office and not have these type of delays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaB Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 This is the kind of crap that just shouldn't happen, especially with less than 2 weeks to go. I am just so mad right now .... For people who prepare TN FAE returns, the extension request enters $90 as the amount to pay with extension request. The minimum fee is $100, so be aware that you have to override that. ATX corrected this one year, but apparently we're back to the old programming. I will have to say that I love the clergy worksheets, so I guess you win some and you lose some...

jklcpa Posted April 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I've calmed down a bit since yesterday. ATX KB says that IRS computer excludes these returns with sec 179 from e-filing because the IRS computer will reconstruct the income subj to SE tax. That may result in TP getting notice for bal owed, so they aren't allowing e-file of these. I e-filed these same returns with 179 LY with no problem & no notices.
