Question:

I’m working with a potential client who is a scientific researcher at a federal institute. He received a Form 1042-S with federal income tax withholding. He is classified as a resident alien for tax purposes.

When I attempt to file his Form 1040 using ProConnect, I receive several critical diagnostics, mainly indicating that the return cannot be e-filed due to the form 1042-S.

Has anyone encountered a similar situation with a resident alien receiving income reported on Form 1042-S?
If so, how were you able to successfully e-file the return through ProConnect?

Thank you in advance for your insights and suggestions!
