checking 1040 return

[JACKSORH]

Each time I try to use the check return feature for the ATX program, I get an error message: Ending yr. date is before the Beginning yr. date. My 1040 form is a version 37 which is the lastest version.

Does any one know how to correct so that I want get this error message?

Thanks,

I've never seen that error. Is it every return? Is your computer's date correct?

I checked the knowledgebase but didn't find any help. Might require a call to ATX...sorry.

It was just this return that it did it to. The computer's date is correct. I'll call Atx tommorrow.

If you click on that error message, it should take you to the location of the error. It sounds like you have a date out of whack somewhere in the return.

Schedule D transaction with dates flipped? Short sale not coded correctly?

Before you make that call try going to the tax year beginning and ending dates. They're at the top of the first page of the 1040. Make sure you haven't entered wacky dates or strange stuff like space or . , % ^ & $ %, etc.. Click Restore to clear them out.

Thanks for all of your comments, however, the return that was rolled over showed that it was an amended return from the previous year. I deleted the form and I don't see the error in any more.

Thanks a million,
