This is on a return that we have done for years and now as the Partnership Representative has to be identified it is stating that the ID number is invalid in the diagnostic section. Ref. #51439. Anyone else have this problem. I have tried replacing with another member and get the same diagnostic. I'm sure since it is a critical diagnostic it won't let me electronically file. Any ideas around it?

Does the representative ID number start with a 9? Did you select it in Screen 1?

If the rep is NOT an individual your diagnostic can be clicked and it will take you to Screen 3. You should complete screen 3 and delete the entry in Screen 1.

If you elect out, you do not need a representative (see the top of Screen 3, Designation of ...)

No, it does not start with a 9 and the rep is an individual.

Just had the same problems, and of all things, I added the hyphens to the numbers and it worked.
