Foreign address, extension payment

[Margaret CPA in OH]

A client moved to Switzerland and wants to extend with a payment. I'm struggling with the foreign address because it doesn't fit State and zip code conventions. I want to efile with a direct debit payment but can't seem to get past the address and the 10 digit phone daytime phone number. Any suggestions?

Don't use ATX any longer, but isn't there a box for FA for foreign address and then you get a pop-up to write in address?

what program do you use now?

ProSystem fx. It does everything! I just did a partnership, exported the K-1s, opened the joint return which recognized the K-1s, and then imported a spreadsheet from their broker with 700 trades. The best thing is that when I did that all for the first time last year even later in April, a nice person at CCH answered the phone quickly and walked me through it all. I use pay-per-return to keep the cost down. But, customer support is worth every penny I pay!

Last year, I have successfully e-filed a federal return for a client residing in Hong Kong. I used "." in the state field and left the zip code field blank. They had a payment due w/ the return which was processed successfully as well.

Thanks, Robin. That seems to have done the trick. There is a place on the 2555 for the foreign address but the 4868 wasn't working. Now I have only the 10 digit daytome phone number to deal with. I suppose I could/should put mine but get 2848 signed first.

Thanks for the hint.
