FBAR 114

[HOPE2]

Hi everyone.

I submitted the FBAR 114 on 03/02/2025, and it is still pending. Have you encountered this issue before?

Thanks for help.

I have one from 2/27 still hanging out as Sent to FinCen. 

Its normal.

@Just-Lisa-Now- 

Hi Lisa, my 114 FinCen is still pending how about yours?

[gabletax]

I'm still waiting on one from March 4. It'll show up sometime. Not unusual to take a few weeks.

[Just-Lisa-Now-]

Mine from 2/27 is still hanging out too

@IntuitGabi should we be worried, this is quite some time for it to still say Sent To FinCen. 

It doesnt even tell us if its received, just Sent To.

[IntuitGabi]

I'll see if I can find additional information. 

[IntuitGabi]

Hi all. Yes, there's been a large number of returns delayed since 2/21/25. It's listed under "BSA - FBAR": on the article: How to check for delayed e-file acknowledgments

[HOPE2]

@IntuitGabi BSA acknowledgments (for Form 114) are usually available within two to five business days.

How can I get it?

[gabletax]

We're dealing with the government here. So I'm guessing there's nothing we can do except hurry up and wait.

@IntuitGabi , 

Please provide an update for 114.

Mine is still pending. Please share your phone number here—my client wants to talk to you as soon as possible. He is extremely angry, and you might be able to handle the conversation better than I can.

@HOPE2 

Are you just joking?   Do you 'really' think Gabi would be willing to chat with your client?

[sjrcpa]

@HOPE2 Tell him to chill. It's not due til April 15. It is automatically extended until October 15.

[Just-Lisa-Now-]

I havent seen any complaints in other tax groups from people that use other software programs that theirs are delayed, I think Intuit needs to do some investigation.

[HOPE2]

@sjrcpa Thanks a lot. The client is an impatient guy

[HOPE2]

Sure Proseries does have a problem. My friend uses Drake he said no problem.

[abctax55]

I'm not saying PS doesn't have a problem.

I'm saying expecting/asking an Intuit employee to *personally* chat with your client is absolutely ludicrous.  I hope you didn't actually offer that as an option to your client. 

And if a client were to harass me over something out of my control, said client would be fired on the spot.  I would hand back all source docs in my possession and tell him to go find someone that gave a d*mn.

[Just-Lisa-Now-]

I just had another one in this morning, but I told her Im not going send it in until we get some kind of resolution for the ones that are stuck. 

Plenty of time to get it filed since its got an automatic extension.

[HOPE2]

Thanks@ Lisa

I've never had a client inquire about the FBAR status, but if so, I'd say 'yes, it was sent to FinCen and you're all set.  Have a good year!"

[HOPE2]

Not for this 😀year, this year still is not all set. Did you sent any to FinCen this year by Proseries?!!!😀

[HOPE2]

Finally FBAR has been accepted!

Nice!

I just found out what might have been the problem.  Apparently, TurboTax just started offering FBAR filing this year.  Because other companies have not had this delayed FBAR acceptance, I strongly suspect that Intuit screwed something up with the TurboTax FBAR which in turn screwed it up for ProSeries.

[gabletax]

Yes, mine is also showing accepted this morning. Interesting thing is that the acceptance date is March 4, almost three weeks ago, which was the day I efiled it.
