Question

Is there a work around for duplicate EIN? 1st one was filed as extension. Data exists in 2nd file. Don't want to rekey everything.

Shouldn't be getting a duplicate if that was the case.
Is this for an individual return?
Could the client have used the non filer site to get the stimulus?

Oh wait, you say "second file"...you should use the same file for the return that you used for the extension.

understood - is there a work around short of rekeying everything into the first file?  Did not intend a 2nd file -not sure why it generated.
