To do an Iowa amendment, we are required to print the Iowa 1040 which is 6 pages, the amendment form 102, 2 pages and then attach the federal amended 1040X and supporting documents. This is minimum of 11 pages to be mailed. This is a waste of time and paper. Then Iowa has to process it. I do know that other software companies do have this feature. I don't want o make it sound like I am threatening but it may be a deal breaker and I may switch software. I have been a ProSeries user for over 30 years. Please add this feature.
pre-fill the tax payments worksheet with the estimated tax amounts that were recommended the year before
This form is in the list of forms for every return I prepare. The software already knows the age and income of the taxpayer. Do not make me check the "exclude" box for taxpayers that would not qualify anyway.
The error message for not checking the box about double checking the payee state EIN should not appear until after you have gone past it and not checked it. Currently, the error message appears before the cursor has moved down to the box. This is frustrating
When a W-2 has social security tips in Box 7, and we've imported the W-2 those tips should simply copy to the qualifying tips field for the 'no tax on tips' deduction.This does two things:It saves keystrokesit assures we don't miss it.
Be able to sort the Tax Return Status (when customizing) and make certain Status's inactive.
It appears that PTO has taken a step backwards in the name of "collaboration" (a large percentage of users are sole practitioners so we don't need to collaborate with ourselves). I key in 2 sets in the Notes field - one is Carryover applicable year after year, and the other relates to the upcoming year only. The sections are separated by a space.When you set up a 2025 return from a 2024 return (1040), the Notes section is now gone and replaced by a BLANK "Comments" section, again in the name of collaboration (thanks for thinking of us sole practitioners). None of the Notes automatically carry over to the Comments section. If you go back to the 2024 file, the notes are grayed out (as in faded and hard to read) and they are "read-only", which many will assume that you can't copy & paste them to the 2025 Comments section.I went through a lengthy tech support call and the only good thing is that you CAN copy/paste (manually - tedious process) each set of Notes to the Comments section for the following year, but you lose the formatting so my 2 sections all run together and have to be reformatted. I have roughly 200 clients and if nothing is fixed, I will have to do this 200 times.The EASY fix, which should have been obvious to the coding folks, is to have the prior year Notes automatically copy/pasted to the Comments section during the conversion routine from 2024 to 2025. There is still plenty of time before tax season so I IMPLORE the coding folks to fix this and maybe in the future when you are testing a new year's changes to the software, actually pull in someone who has done a tax return online before, because forcing people to go back to the previous year for critical Notes and having them squint at a faded version of the notes is beyond belief, AND also forcing them to do hundreds of manual copy/paste routines to get their years of critical notes into the current year file is NOT fun. The program is supposed to get better every year, not worse.Thanks for fixing this.
Wisconsin S Corporation in Proseries does not include a Form PW-1 which is need to be filed for non-resident shareholders. This is pretty common so is there a way to get this form included into Proseries Professional?
Make it mandatory to make an input in tax withheld and wage fields. If I miss box 17 for example, the system will assume a value of 0 when it was a case of oversight. This can lead to costly errors. If it is truly 0 then force the user to input 0. At a minimum, an error will cause the user to have to go back and check the input source.
There appears to be a calculation issue with tip income entered on Schedule C. The tip amount is not duplicated in the input screens, yet it is being included twice in the calculation, which materially affects net income and related deductions.I have contacted Lacerte, but definitely was not 'heard', I probably should have called back and spoken to somebody else.This does not appear to be user error. The duplication seems to occur within the calculation flow.
