Tax Man Tan
Level 4

No, no workaround. Proseries SUCKS, and is the ONLY software to not xfer the info. From what I've heard both Drake and Lacerte have draft 8915F's, and the data has transferred. Proseries, JOKE of a software does not. Drakes had it since January, and Lacerte's had it for a few weeks now. All you can do is check each client, or create a custom view to show those with taxable IRA/pension distributions, and then go manually add the amount in, but you can't file until the form itself finalizes with the IRS. A company that cared about it's clients probably would have sent out notifications to alert them that this MAJOR issue was arising, but PROSERIES gives no mind or consideration to this facet of it's revenue stream. They do not care about the preparer's that much is evident. If you call you cannot talk to a supervisor, and the rep's have no idea what's going on. The whole company has went into the toilet! It'll be our last year using this crap software. Good luck to you!
