I submit 95% of my W2's via Nelco, the vendor partnering with my Howell write-up software. The handful that are not sent via Nelco generally have 1 or 2 employees, which I enter manually. I do not plan to change to file upload (I'd tried accuwage previously without success). For my practice, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' !!

Danrvan, true. My comment was incomplete and should have included the phrase “not sold via public trading”.

Installment method is available for the sale of privately held stock.

Have you read the grant documents ?

Just received an ATX email, stating that the 2021 software will be available one day next week. ATX offices will be closed for Thanksgiving Thursday and Friday 11/25 and 11/26.

state unemployment claimants use id.me when claimants apply for unemployment

I was getting worried. Returns efiled about 9:30 this morning had delayed ACK's which didn't come through until about 10 minutes ago.

Randall, no announcement yet but if I recall it's mid to late January.

The announcement came out today for 1040’s - cutoff date is 11/20. https://www.irs.gov/e-file-providers/subscribe-to-quick-alerts?fbclid=IwAR1biHcfTFg74LELlBiQ7zr9VS3HMB5Sj4b8NXeNTDiFrmJLnHd4rwoQ7H4

Tax organizers were just dropped in the forms update !!!

Yes

Was the unemployment more than $10,200? Are they in a community property state?

2021-49 dropped last week. Don’t remember if it is a notice or rev proc

IMO the costs to engage someone to prepare (and follow through) an OIC far outweigh the amount of remaining tax due. The other options should be pursued.

Did you look in the Elections Tab ?

Corduroy Frog, online credit card vendors such as Square have no monthly processor fee though there may be an upfront charge for the swipe device. I no longer use the swipe device. In my practice if a client wishes to pay by credit or debit card I go into my online square account, issue them an invoice which is emailed to them. The client may remit payment by clicking on a link to enter their credit or debit card details or ACH details for direct debit from their checking account. In doing so the fees are 2.96% for credit/debit or 1% for ACH. Yes, it is an extra step for me, but facilitates payment. I see vendors these days adding a credit card fee; I do not , or it is not separately stated since my fees for tax returns generally increase a bit every year. Oh, for direct deposit of refunds I require a voided check.

My experience has been a delay of 10-12 weeks after EF acceptance. Good news is IRS pays interest.

After conversion from your previous software check all the carry forwards - NOL, capital losses, 8582 limitations, depreciation .

NAEA partners with Surgent for the SEE prep courses.

@Max, CSEA decoupled from NAEA a few years ago. One could join either organization without being required to join the other. Many current members of NAEA are from California.

I've had at least 2 - 3 emails. My rep is Torez Brown - [email protected]

Enter the same numbers in FEIN format instead of SSN format.

It's really true for tax year 2020 !!! Prepare the 8962 and the bottom line will be -0- to be repaid.

My post should have stated ' will NOT be fixed' by ATX. Thanks Gail for understanding what I really meant to say.
