What form do you use? You are preparing yourself to become an official licensed professional counselor in regard to youth and family services dealing with mental heathcare. You are working with two different organizations. What form do you use to report two 1099 misc forms you receive from two organizations? There are also work related expenses, a big one being mileage. You have a supervisor over you that you also pay some money. Look forward to your answer.

I know I can do that. What I was wanting was to be able to print out the list of forms from the ATX Support center and compare it with the version number in my returns.

Last year I could go to the ATX support center and download all the federal forms and their version numbers. I did this so that I could check my forms to see if they had the correct version number. I could also look at the status of the form and see if the form was approved. Where is this feature this year? I can't find it. The ATX support center has a list of latest updates for federal forms but that is just a short list. Thank you for your reply!

When I enter agriculture payments in form 1099G it does not stay there. I am working with the 1040 return along with form 1099G. Everyone that has agriculture payments in your return needs to watch this problem. My form version for the 1099G is 44

I need the K1 input worksheet in order to put what income was earned from an S-corporation into a 1040 return.

I did not see the State Cover Letter to download so I highlighted the first Federal Word seen on the page and Typed my State Cover like it was in 2011. I than saved it to my desktop and brought it in as a template and it worked correctly. I only changed that one place on the form that I downloaded from ATX.

Here is what I tried and it worked. 1. click on returns 2. click on print returns 3. wait until all forms load Now look at the checkbox above where loading 4. click check all once 5. click check all twice to delete all forms to print 6. select the forms you want to print After selecting the forms I wanted to print it showed me 0-17 which took 9 minutes to print. I have an HP LaserJet Pro 400 color M451dn printer I still need to work on getting a cover letter for federal and state.

I bought an HP LaserJet Pro 400 color M451dn The reason I bought this new printer is because I could not print correctly with my old printer because in the ATX program I could not change the mirror image to off and therefore the pages in the ATX would print backwards. I called ATX a number of times about the problem and still have not been able to talk to tech support. There is still a problem printing even with my new printer. I tried to print a return today and a lot of blank pages printed with one line of gobly gook at the top. It printed a few good pages at the beginning and than shot out a lot of the bad pages. When I printed individual pages it printed ok. Unless they get this fixed, I will use TAXACT.

The best tax bundle that TAXACT has is the Enterprise Bundle which cost $1259 for preparers. 1. It has preparer's 1040;1065;1120s and 1120 Enterprise Editions 2. It has preparer's 1040;1065;1120s & 1120 All States 3. You can prepare, print & e-file unlimited 1040, 1065, 1120s & 1120 client returns Down from that is the Complete Bundle which does not do all that the enterprise at a cost of $999 There are also cheeper plans if you don't need all types of returns and all states. I don't think they have the payroll forms like we have in ATX. I have used ATX for around 15 years and this has been the worst year. I hope they improve the program. I have also used TAXACT in the last few years. I was able to use TAXACT in December to find out where I was in the matter of my taxes. TAXACT is a forms based program and when you click on for example a line in form 1040 instead of the rabbit in ATX you have two obtions, a detail page and an folder. By clicking on the folder on line 7 of form 1040 leads you to where you can add a form to enter your W-2 information. You will see these detail and folder options through out the pages of a return. I like the forms method in entering data. You also have the question and answer method if you so choose. You ask if you can download the programs from the internet. Yes You can call 1-800-573-4287 and they can send you an email to help you download the program but I would also ask that they would send all disk. You can also download from the web. The software sight is: Taxact.com Click on professional taxes at the top of the page. I could not even print from ATX until I bought a new printer today. The mirror image was the problem. ATX sure prints slow and you have to wait a long time. With TAXACT, I can print very fast. I have tried Drake this year also but there is a lot to learn in that program and it is not form based like ATX and TAXACT. Just some thoughts. Let me know what you think!

You better have a (w-2) wages or salary here or you are in big trouble. You can't just take a distribution.

In the change printer, properties, adavanced feature, the ATX program does not let me keep the mirror image off. I turn it off but it does not stay off when I leave the feature. I come back to the feature and the mirror image is on again. Has anyone else had this problem and what did you do about it?

When I printed form 940 and 941 in The Payroll Compliance 2012 it printed correctly. It sure is not printing correctly in the ATX program. I have the lastest update.

When I print from Word or Excel or any other tax program, it works good but when I print from ATX it prints the material backwords.

When I try to print, everything prints backwards. I tried to turn mirrow printing off in the advanced features but it comes back on. It says off when I click off, but when I click on the advance features again it says the mirrow feature is on. Nothing stays even when I disable the whole feature, What is problem? How are the rest of you printing any pages?

Thanks for the quick response.

In the past, a farmer could file his return and pay his tax by March 1. Since congress was slow in getting the law pass, has the IRS extened the time to file and pay the tax? In the instructions, I still see the same day of March 1 Where does it say they have extended the time for this? If you knw where can you give me a link to the site? Thanks!

I am able to open up two returns so far. An S-Corporation return and a 1040 Return. The program is slower than earlier years but when I wait it opens up for me. If I'm impatient and start clicking my mouse like I did today, it didn't open up once but instead closed down the program after installing the new update.

About the problem I had above, looking at the worksheet I thought why not click on line 6 with the arrow. When I did that, it opened up the worksheet I was looking for in line 4 and 5. I entered the 1st, 2nd, 3rd payments which went on line 4 and the 4th payment went on line 5. So unless I hear different from ATX, I quess that is the answer to my problem. This had to do with State estimated taxes paid for 2012 that goes on Schedule A. Yes KC, I did call Customer service, but I figured the above out while I was on the phone.

I can't enter the state estimated taxes on the worksheet for 2012. On line 4 the arrow would not open the worksheet so that I could enter the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd quarter payments. Line 5 would not let me enter the 4th quarter payment for 2012. When will this problem be fixed with Schedule A

1. I have rolled over an S-Corporation form from 2011. 2. All the forms from 2011 have not rolled over. 3. The program seems to take longer to open than in past years. 4. One thing that I don't like is that you have to have two different programs in order to have forms you had in the past. For example Form 940 which is in the Payroll Compliance program. And having the second program also takes returns you have purchased so more cost to you. 5. I have also rolled over a 1040 return but there are a lot of forms in that return that are not available. Even form 1040 is not complete even though I can see the form.

1. Arrows instead of bunny hops 2. If you are in the PRS program, you are charged for two available returns instead of one in the previous years programs. You use one available return when you open up the tax preparation software and you use one when you open up the payroll compliance program. 3. I sure wish they would have left the program as it has been for a number of years.

I rolled over form 1120S today and it worked ok. But there are other forms in the return that did not rolled over but I believe they will when they are approved.

Reserved still shows up on the IRS 1040 form. It is line 67.

Don't you mean form 2210-F

Marilyn Thanks for the information. It works!
