interest imput in atx program

[Marie]

sometimes I just want to put interest received by taxpayer, but don't have the ss# and address. this happens mostly when an the taxpayer has made a personal loan to an individual. atx won't let me efile without all that info. I thought we used to be able to do that. is it necessary to have all the info (especially if under $1500) and is there a way to put it in without?

I'm not having that problem. Try using the Detail tab instead of the input tab, though I don't know why that would matter.

when the info wasn't in the detail, or input tab, I get the same message. can I override on the front page?

In this situation, I just ask the client to obtain the necessary information. Never had a problem.

Just stick it on the 1099 interest tab and move on. I have never in my life seen so many people get caught up in little details. As long as its on the return as income who cares.

Is the message red? I just tested it and I did not get an error at all. What error are you getting?

Make sure you uncheck 'add to payor manager' and there's no issues.

absolutely. I do it on the detail tab where I can enter/edit all at once.

just put it in as another bank interest not, seller financing etc.
