all of us who have to prepare Phila BIRT and NPT returns are poor country cousins when it comes to our relationship with Intuit.   They don't care about us and LIE about filing the returns electronically.   They will tell you that the forms aren't ready.   The forms are ready to file with Phila.   The forms are NOT READY BY INTUIT.   So right now the release date says 2/17/22 but that date will become 2/28 and then 3/10/22.   I know they do this because last year I asked another CPA friend of mine how he was dealing with not being able to file electronically the Phila returns.   His response, "We have been filing them electronically for weeks!"   That was in February of last year.

first, they won't attach the forms to the 1120, 1120S or the 1065.   the ONLY way to get access is to open a bogus 1040 and open the PA40 to get access to the forms.   you can't efile them this way either as you have to efile the PA40 to be able to efile the Phila returns.   (Unless someone has found a workaround that I don't know about).   so you have to print and mail them or you can go on line (but you have to set up user name and password for each client) and submit electronically.   i mail them.   HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL BUT INTUIT DOESN'T GIVE A **bleep**.   I was going to start using another software but there were errors on almost every file transfer.    We are stuck and they know it..............................
