RITA. Ohio

RITA is not available until 02.08.24 but I found a workaround.. little clumsy but it is better than having to follow up and see client a second time.  that is have 2022 program open. (this works best if you prepared their 2022 return a year ago or whenever).

1. fill out the RITA form in 2023 program.. it will not print since form not ready yet

2. call up client return in 2022.. change the w-2 info entered for 2022 but using 2023 data... go to RITA side of the program.. review calculations.. print out 2022 RITA return only.. go to homebase but when asked to save return, click on no. 

3. get white out. white out the 2022 on top of the RITA return as well as periods worked a little lower on the form.. wait to dry.. enter 2023 on top of form and 010123 and 123123 in dates worked fields.

4. assemble RITA return.. staple w-2s. etc to the RITA return and give to client to mail in..

5. fed and state get efiled.. waiting to 01.29.24 to do that. 

presto.. not the best but like i said better than having to schedule a 2nd appt.

That is a lot of messing around, but that week and a half means about 300 returns for you😜

One day away from RITA supposedly being ready.. Maybe the PA issue is solved so the RITA can be fixed now.
