I recently found out that I need an EFIN number to e-file. I used to use my father’s number. He passed away last year. I already apply for my number but it will take forever to get it. I’ll need to paper file and don’t know how to do it. Called tech support and didn’t help me.

Uncheck the efile button, print to paper, staple, sign - give to client to sign.

Are you aware that if you prepare 10 or more (more than 10?) efiling is a requirement?

Thank you for the information.

Don't forget to file form 8948 with each return since I am assuming your clients requested that you file a paper return for them.

You may want to apply for an EFile waiver if you plan to prepare more than 10 returns.

Since you are having a tough time getting out of the starting blocks, I hope the rest of tax season goes better for you.

The EFIN was associated with your father, and not your father's business (which you may be continuing)?

The more I know the more I don’t know.

Ah... good point/possibility. Let's hope so.
