F-2210 My Problem

[BobinNJ]

I know I must be stupid ( and I always hated the 2210), but how do you get the Part 1, Line 8 to fill-in last year's total tax liability? The system certainly has the info. What do I have to do, other than override it?

Scroll to very top of the form. In the tan area are blue boxes to input PY tax and AGI.

You have to manually enter them. This has been an issue ever since I started using ATX (2002). I never understood why they did not populate those numbers from the previous year. It seems like a no brainer.

Did the prior year return have a 2210?

I checked on one of mine that a had 2210 in the prior year and the amounts rolled over.

I did not check one without a 2210 in prior year, because I have had the same feature question.

DUH!!!! Thanks a ton, Margaret. I have been overriding all year.

Thank you Margaret for setting me straight. I swear I checked for info above form, but who knows.

These info boxes above forms are confusing, especially when the form comes up partially scrolled down so that the boxes are not on your screen 'til you go looking for them.

Thanks again.
