Anyone else seeing this message or can explain it to me? The state return is rejected with Code State-901. The IRS submission ID referenced int he state submission manifest must be present in the e file database. The Federal and state returns were created at the same time. Not sure how to solve since cannot really understand what the problem is. I'm seeing it on multiple returns though.

Copies of bank statements from the bank. Do the best you can to recreate financial data. Banks will usually waive any fees in a situation like this.

Any one else having disposition problems? Dispose of asset, system says date of disposition must fall within current year. Date I'm using is 03/01/2012. That falls within the 2012 tax year for the client. I've even tried a different date. system will not accept. Any suggestions? Any one else experiencing problems?

Where in this lovely new program can i find the ability to print a federal or state return mailing slip? I need to print mailing slips for some of the larger state returns that will need to be paper filed. Temporarily, I've used the 2011 program, but that is not efficient. thanks

Thanks for confirming my thoughts.

Client donated sick leave to the "bank" at work to be given to someone who had terminal cancer. I do not believe it qualifies as donation because it was to an individual. What are your thoughts? This was a government employee. I also believe they were not taxed on the money they chose to donate. Thanks! Bonnie

I figured it out - there is a box on the 1099-R input screen. I was just overlooking it before.

How do I tell the software that a 1099-R received with code 1 was actually rolled over within 60 day period and is not subject to income tax or penalty?

I'm preparing the corporate return. The program is putting the loss on Schedule M-1 Line 5 and not completing the Form 4797. I'm confused and cannot find any information on this being proper treatment. It is different than prior years.

Where would I find the information regarding how to treat? The system is not allowing the loss due to the Section 179 that was claimed. It is an S corp. I just want to verify the treatment is proper. I could not locate it in Pub 544.

I have used the bulk disposition feature often in the past with no problems. My client discarded around 20 pieces of computer equipment that was obsolete. I have gone into each asset and tagged it to the bulk disposition. They all appear on the bulk summary sheet. However, no numbers are transferring to the Form 4797. Any suggestions????

Tech helped solve problem. We had to completely uninstall then re install but backup brought everything over. Last night I could rollover returns but this morning rollover is a problem. Any suggestions?

12.8 nightmare, 12.9 installed finally. Thank you DJ ATX tech support guy. My serious problems are solved.

Very true....only wish I had been aware of this yesterday at 5:30!!!!!!! Could have saved me hours on phone with tech support. Still waiting on someone to help.

I did the program update directly from the website. Followed all installations instructions. Antivirus software was temprarily disabled. Rebooted computer. Working on a stand alone machine. ATX 2012 will not load...error message states ATX 2012 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. UGH!!! Friday night and I do not need this. I intentionally waited to install update until end of day. Very glad I did now. However, I need the program to load and work. Any suggestions???? I am running Windows XP as the operating system.

Thank you!

My client has a proposed settlement from Worker's Comp. I don't believe such a settlement is taxable but cannot locate anything to back up my position. Also, will such a settlement have any impact on the Social Security disability benefits my client is currently receiving?

My friend found this on the website. Hope it helps others out there. http://cchsfs-atx.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/14035/kw/client%20mailing%20slip%20centered

I usually recommend Medlin to my small clients who want to run their own payroll. It is an easy to use program for most clients. Does anyone have a program they recommend for their Mac clients that is affordable for the small client? Thanks!!!

Thank you! I had figured out the dollar amounts already just needed the election. I ended up creating my own within the election form.

I need to make an election to treat the trade in of a vehicle as a tax-free disposition. I believe it is election 1.168(i)-6(i). How/where do I make this election in ATX? I have not been able to find it. I've looked in elections and cannot locate. Please help!!

I have a client who earned $28 K while residing in Switzerland for 60 days. He had to pay Swiss tax on this money. Is this money taxable to the US? He is a US resident. When looking up the tax treaty, it only appears to cover Swiss residents earning income while in the US. If the money is taxable to the US, would he receive a foreign tax credit for the tax paid to Switzerland? Any help is appreciated.

I'm not waiting until the 17th. Headed out in the morning to VA Beach for a few days. My daughter is on Spring Break this week. I want to enjoy time with her while I can.

I'm having one of those days where I am blanking on what should be a simple question. College student has a small part time job while away at school in KY. Other than when in school, he is a WV resident. Question is regarding the state tax returns. Should he file WV return showing all income as taxable or KY return. Both states have 183 day residency requirements and also have reciprocity. All income is from wages. College student was claimed on Mom's tax return as dependent. Thanks for the guidance.

Thanks for the guidance. Client is giving information to church to see if they will correct the W-2. Apparently, I'm the first accountant to tell one of the pastors the W-2 was wrong. Just goes to show that there are a lot of preparer's who do not understand clergy tax. The pastors apparently go to the same person that prepared the W-2's.
