Masking

PulaskiBoy

When I print my client’s filing copy, client copy, and preparer copy, I select Mask Sensitive Data for the client copy.  However, Form 8879 is not masked, which seems counter-intuitive.  How do I send the client home with a masked copy to prevent identity theft?  When the client is in front of me, and I want them to sign Form 8879, I can print it from the preparer copy or by Print Selected Forms, which is not masked.  The way it is now, if I want the client copy to be masked, I need to take a black marker and redact the first five numbers of the social.  My suggestion for enhancement is if I select Mask Sensitive Data for my client copy, all sensitive information will be masked.

Thanks for the idea to Mask all sensitive information if user selects "Mask sensitive data" on form 8879 . We are changing the status to "Open for voting".
