E-File an extension for trust with end date of Aug 2023?

[MaryNoe]

Is there a way to efile a 7004 for a trust return that has an end date of Aug 2023?  It should be filed on 2023 tax software.  Mailing is possible, but I'm afraid it'll get lost, . . .  Any ideas?

Isn't it 2022 software for returns beginning in 2022? (My brain's fried right now, but giving you something to research.) And, I don't use ATX, but I e-filed Form 7004 in ProSystem fx.

Yes, fiscal year returns and extensions are on the prior year form because 2023 forms are not ready yet. Just make sure you have the fiscal year dates correct in the return before efiling the extension.
