Hi all. 

Edited to add:   The paragraph shows up on the form "Federal Supplemental Info," and the CPA says that won't work because it was originally shown as a Federal Statement. 

In preparing a 1040-X for a client who is new to us, we need to add an explanatory paragraph that appeared as a Federal Statement on the1040 that another firm prepared.  However, when I go to what we think should be the right place - Screen 47/"Notes" - it doesn't work.  We choose the "Statements" button on the left and type in the paragraph, then go to Forms view,  and there is no statement.  As a test, we tried typing it under the "Worksheets" button, but the input doesn't show up on a Worksheet, either.  (Anything we input at the Misc 1 and Misc 2 buttons on Screen 47 DOES show up on the letter.)  

I've searched the knowledgebase and get nothing at all responsive to this.  Only thing close was about input for Screen 45a, and the answer there was that the form itself had not yet been released; that can't be the case here.

I know it must be possible, not only because the other preparer's software did it, but because Lacerte Screen 47 SHOWS "Statements" as one of the choices.  Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!
