Tax Prep by Deb Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 For those of you who like me, have the program set to hold the state returns until the federal has been accepted, keep in mind that today is the last day to timely file returns. Because volume is going to be heavy do not expect the federal acknowledgments to come thru quickly. I have begun sending both federal and state at the same time. At least if they reject we have the additional time to correct them, and even if Federal rejects and the state doesn't, at least then we can ammend the state but still show it was filed timely. Deb!

Thanks for posting; I started that a day or two ago but it never occurred to me to warn others! Quote
Gail in Virginia Posted April 17, 2009 Report Posted April 17, 2009 Fortunately, the state of Virginia gives us until May 1 to timely file state returns, but thanks for thinking of us! Quote
OldJack Posted April 17, 2009 Report Posted April 17, 2009 In all my years, I have never had a paper filed return rejected. :D Quote
Gail in Virginia Posted April 17, 2009 Report Posted April 17, 2009 I have had it happen a couple of times, but only because the client mailed it in without signing it first. So it can happen! Quote
