BulldogTom Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I had my first injured spouse claim this year, and when I created the e-file, I got a blue warning that says the form will not be included in the e-file per IRS instructions. But when I go to the forms included in the e-file from the 1040 e-file tab, it says it was included. I printed out the form and had the client sign it and will send it off to Fresno, but I am confused if they already have the form. Anyone know for sure?

Kimberly K Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Tom, I didnt think you could efile this form, I thought it always had to be sent by mail. Did this change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frazzled Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Form 8379 can be efiled. It works in my software. From instruction for Form 8379 - "Time Needed To Process Form 8379 Generally, if you file Form 8379 with a joint return on paper, the time needed to process it is about 14 weeks (11 weeks if filed electronically). If you file Form 8379 by itself after a joint return has been processed, the time needed is about 8 weeks." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
