Mask SSNs on Forms 8879

[DeanRose]

I print out filing copies for my file copy and the client copy for my client.  I also print out 8879s as selected forms.  Please mask the SSNs on these selected 8879s as they just stay with us.  If clients e-mail the signed forms to me, I'd like the SSNs masked.  If I check the Mask Sensitive Data box, the DO NOT MAIL watermark appears on the CA form and the SSN is not masked on the federal 8879.  Please mask the SSNs on the federal form and remove the watermark from the CA form.

If you print the Client Copy and choose to Mask does the 8879 still show up unmasked?

The Filing copy will never get masked for anything.

That watermark may be a state requirement, they dont want anyone mailing something that has a masked SSN.
