deleting 1099;s etc

[grandmabee]

did you notice you now have to delete any 1099's or w-2's or prior amount on on donation list if you don't have a figure in them. Never had to do that in the past. ANOTHER GREAT IMPROVEMENT ATX . I haven't yet found an improvement that I like or needed just things that slow us down.

Just complying with the newest MEF protocols required by the IRS.

I remember always being asked to do that when either doing the return check or creating the e-file. Maybe it wasn't mandatory, but was always annoying. 1099 Gs, especially, always seemed to be hiding behind door #1.

ATX used to rollover the amount of the state refund into a new 1099-G, so the old one(s) were lurking with no amounts in them, and the new ones didn't have the address or other info, just the amount. So I was always deleting excess 1099-Gs.

I like that feature, personally. I don't like that since the last round of updates a 1099-G wants a social security number only for the recipient. I have a large farm partnership that gets 1099G's from Agriculture, Forestry, etc.and ATX is now telling me (after first deleting the recipient information) that the recipients TIN is formatted incorrectly when I use an EIN. I hope this is not a problem when I go to e-file.

this year it rolls over but doesn't populate a new 1099-G. So it is improved.
