Why will the program not take filing as a non paid preparer

[Just-Lisa-Now- · Accepted solution]

Non-paid preparers generally wouldn't be using a Professional tax program.  

As a tax professional I include my paid preparer information on any return I prepare, whether I got paid or not.

Family??  My wife has lots of family.  My last family 'fee' was a jar of lemmoncello.  Lisa:  I'm in San Mateo - you can have the lemmoncello

Do Intuit's terms of use allow that?

I don't charge my family, So my question hasn't been addressed

As a tax professional I sign all returns that I prepare, so I cant help you, sorry.

I use PSPro and efile family (even when I get lemmoncello) as Non-Paid and it works fine.  I have to add a code as the efiler (maybe ERO or whatever) - I just use a 5 digit and all is good
