Are there some ‘secrets’ to listing foreign pensions in Screen 13.1?
I have checked the foreign address box, and included an address (in the payer information section).
I have checked the boxes for ‘Compensation not reported on 1099’ and ‘Employee performed services while residing in the U.S.’ in Additional Electronic Filing Information (in the Foreign Employer Pension section) towards the bottom of Screen 13.1.
Result is a Critical Diagnostic indicating “only returns with entities or employers that have an Federal EIN can be efiled. This return must be paper filed.” And, ref. #59982, which appears not to exist.
If it makes a difference, in addition to the Federal return, I am filing a California resident return, and an Alabama non-resident return.
Suggestions? Hints? Ideas?
In advance, thanks!
