Is there a way to hide/mask your firm's preparer EIN on the client copy? I don't want my EIN floating around on my clients' paper copies of their tax returns. I figured out how to mask the PTIN but I'm more concerned about my EIN! Thanks! Eric J [phone number removed]

If you use PS Professional, it is possible. See this article and a recent discussion.

Thanks! Yes possible but not an ideal solution. It adds an ugly watermark that cannot be removed. I find it frustrating that the general print options allow for a masking of the preparer PTIN in the client copy but not the preparer EIN! I'm more concerned with the theft of my EIN than my PTIN!
