PS Basic does not provide form 4852 Substitute form W2. I downloaded the form from the IRS website and filled it in and attached it as a PDF to the tax return along with the final pay stud and letter 62C from the IRS. In the preparer notes that are supposedly transmitted with the return, I mentioned that wages, taxable income and EIC will have to be recalculated by the IRS with the information provided in the PDF attachments. I will be sure to let all the fine folks on this forum know about my Running With Scissors moment.
The TP was in agreement concerning the extra time that may be involved, but probably quicker than paper filing.
It felt like the old days when you could write an explanation in the margins of a paper filed return.
