This is *NOT* about the May 17th deadline extension...

When I put a client on extension to October 15, and then a miracle happens and they get me to the info to file before the "normal deadline, Lacerte prints October 15th as the payment deadline for mailing payment with a 1040-V  in the client letter. 

This is not correct.  The payment deadline was the original April 15 (or May 17th, or July 15th ...) date, and has nothing to do with the extended filing deadline.  If they owe money, interest and penalties might be accruing from the April 15th date.

Anyone know why Lacerte prints October 15th in the letter?
