ATX gives error when 2 sch Cs are involved.

[Pacun]

I hope this gets updated soon. I have a return with two schedules C and I get an error stating that ONLY one copy of sch C 02 can be filed. Can you try to create an efile file when the return contains two schedules C?

[MichaelG]

Yes you should be able to file with two Sch C's Let me check something and I will get back in a few min.

[Pacun]

Thank you.

I know that you cannot use two Sch C-ez, but I have never had a problem with two schedules C.

[MichaelG]

Originally did this return have two Sch C's, and one of them was discarded, and Rolled over? I have re-created this issue if that is you case.

[Pacun]

You are quick and correct.

The return was rolled over and by mistake one Schedule C was removed. Then I re-add it. Since it was not working, I removed it one more time and saved the return. I closed ATX and opened the return (which included ONLY one Sch C). I added the second Sch C and I got the same error.

I am going to open another topic that bothers me every year.

[MichaelG]

Pacun if you want it fixed tonight you will need to discard all sch C's from the return and save it. Close it and re-open it. Now add the Sch C's back in one at a time. You will need to re-allocate the Assets if there is a 4562 involved. If you would like help I can call you.

[Pacun]

These are two easy schedules C and no problem recreating them since I have them printed.

In the long run, should we be very careful when we roll over returns with two Sch Cs? Will it work if I don't remove one of them by mistake? As you will understand, this could be a nightmare if you have big schedules C and depreciation.

[MichaelG]

I am going to get this in tonight and hopefully have it all fixed by the morning.

I did not discard any Sch C's. I simply rolled over a return with 2 Sch C's from last year. I am getting the same ATX Error: Only 1 copy of Sch C:02 is supported by the program.

[MichaelG]

We are in the process of fixing this now. There will be a program update to address it.

Are you form ATX tech support?

[MichaelG]

I am currently still employed with ATX. However My last day working for the company will be March 9'th. I declined to offer to move to Kennesaw GA. I purchased the software this year, and became an ATX customer. I have been living and breathing ATX, Taxes, & E-File for 13 years. It only makes sense that my new career should be tax prep and e-file.

[grandmabee]

Are you saying that ATX is moving or closing an office in the Middle of tax season????

[Pacun]

Welcome. This community will be very valuable to you.

The program is not working. I was happy when I so that an update for Schedule C was downloaded but no juice. I remove the offending Schedule C and added it back and still no jugo.

[MichaelG]

No, nothing is closing during the tax season. Just my position will be ending at that time.

Pacun as far as the Sch C issue that you and I have it needs to be fixed with a program update. Updating the form will not correct this. How I fixed it in my return was to discard all Sch C's and save the return. Once I brought them back in and re-allocated my assets on the Asset entry and keyed in my figures on the Sch C all was good. There should be an update really soon, the other day when I reported it, I was told a couple of days.

[Pacun]

I have not removed both of them at the same time, but I removed one at a time. Both have been done from scrath... I will wait for the update since today is the last day for the first batch.
