You can't get past those errors.    An EFIN is required to electronically file tax returns.

You will need to pay a tax professional to file.

Those messages are saying EFIN for the ERO, not EIN

I think I remember an issue last year when someone is Efiling their own and are using their SSN rather than an EIN for their business, I think it flags because the program thinks the SSN is a mistake..

Have you been EFiling other returns?

Ugh, shocking that someone on the professional forum would think they could file without having that information.

@Just-Lisa-Now- Yes, I have been able to E-file other returns.  I have seen others post this question but have never seen a solution.

@dsocpa Sorry my question was so shocking to you.  To clarify, I have an EFIN, but not an EIN.

I read your message differently than Lisa.   Sounded like you were trying to efile without an EFIN.

When I efile my own return, I indicate I'm the paid preparer.    Try that see if your errors go away.

ProSeries should have Self Prepared and Non Paid Preparer options.

EDIT: per Lisa's post I guess it does.

I think if you if you use your SSN instead of an EIN, it wont let you EF as the paid preparer, you have to use the Non-Paid or Self Prepared options   Code XNP or XSP for the preparer code.

or is it vice versa...you'll have to try it both ways, see which gets rid of the error.
