PARTNERSHIP RETURN ATTACHMENTS

[Robert Balter]

We are filing an administrative adjustment request and therefore need to attach Forms 8082, 8985, and 8986.

These contain sensitive taxpayer information.

1. Should these attachments be encrypted for efiling or unencrypted?

2. If encrypted, how do we tell the taxing authority what the passwords are so that they can open them?

3. Should all of the 8986's be combined into one file or separately attached?

Thanks.

Attaching as PDFs are our only options, all EFiled docs are encrypted as they're transmitted to IRS.

Id guess attaching them individually would be best, there may be size restrictions per attachment, putting them all in one may trigger some kind of file size limitation.
