I have recently gotten ProConnect, I am trying to review a simple sample return, (that the software created), the return states there are errors that affect the ability to eFile, for example the PTIN is missing. I do not have a PTIN, I thought this was a "practice space" and is strictly for learning. I am not sure what to do, any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Thanks
I guess the learning process was successful if you learned you need a PTIN to e-file. But if you aren’t going to actually e-file the return, why are you concerned about the error message?
There are lots of diagnostic messages. Many can be ignored, others you must attend to in order to successfully e-file a tax return. Unlike TurboTax, you must have an EFIN and a PTIN to e-file. Without those you must print the return to PDF then print that PDF to paper and then find postage and an envelope to mail the return.
