Client SSN/EIN Masking by Team Member

The ability to turn off a team member's ability to view SSNs and EINs would be helpful, especially for those using offshore preparers as this would make the required IRS disclosures a bit more palatable.

"especially for those using offshore preparers as this would make the required IRS disclosures a bit more palatable."

I find that interesting; from my viewpoint it would be the opposite.

If I was a client and read a disclosure that said that the other preparer can't see my SSN, that would make me think that you don't trust that other tax preparer.  There is NO WAY I would continue with that service.
