Form 990 EZ 2020

Any one having difficulty with Form 990-EZ section VI, line 51? This question asks the organization to report their five highest compensated independent contractors who each received more than $100,000.

The instructions say to enter 'None" if there is none, but then you get an error message for not putting an amount in the compensation block (c) when you enter 'None' in block (a).

I can't figure out a way to complete the return without an error message which I assume will not let us file the return electronically.

Help!

I use Lacerte. See if this helps:

Enter the actual compensation amount(s) instead of leaving the field(s) blank. Do not enter the word None.

I come here for kudos and IRonMaN's jokes.

Once you enter the amount(s), see if "None" magically appears on that line.

If not, Joshua'd just be barking up the wrong tree, and I'd tell him, "Bad Dog. Bad Dog".

Hi Joshua:

Thanks for providing a suggestion, unfortunately it did not work!

I appreciate you spending time trying to assist others with these kind of issues.

I guess it's "Bad Dog. Bad Dog" 🙂
