NC conformity

[Lynn EA USTCP in Louisiana]

NC EA's - does NC have an e-file help desk for tax pro's? In light of the recently announced conformity to the IRC as of 2/8/18 I wonder if NC will be updating its 2017 forms. Thanks,

From a link in the "contact us" section, this is the general page with lots of links for tax pros:  https://www.ncdor.gov/taxes-forms/information-tax-professionals

and this one is the specific link to Tax Practitioner Priority Service for NC with phone numbers and what is needed from the tax pro in order to discuss and resolve issues:

Thanks, Judy.  I talked with NC PPL, who assured me that form updates are not required due to the recent conformity to IRC as of 2/8/18.

Does this mean I can complete the NC return I’m holding for an over-65 client who has deductible medical expenses?  I’m on vacation this week and can’t check to see if Drake has removed the caution about this.

John, as far as I know, yes, NC returns that we've been holding may now be completed.
