How to resolve diagnostics ref. 3808 and 3810 in ProConnect Tax

by Intuit•3• Updated 3 months ago

When working on an Individual (1040) return, you may encounter one or both of the following diagnostics:

  • "Although the taxpayer has an overpayment of [current tax year] taxes, absent the estimated tax payment(s) made after April 15th, the taxpayer would have owed taxes on April 15th." (ref. #3808)
  • "Absent the taxpayer's estimated tax payment(s) made after April 15th, the taxpayer would have owed more taxes on April 15th." (ref. #3810)
  1. Go to Input Return ⮕ Payments, Penalties & Extensions ⮕ Penalties & Interest (2210).
  2. Enter a Filing Date under the Underpayment Penalty (2210) section.
  3. Select the Late Return Pen & Int. tab.
  4. Enter calculated amounts in:
    • Interest (1= automatic) (if applicable).
    • Late payment of tax (1= automatic) (if applicable).

Please note that these diagnostics will not disappear, but they will not prevent you from e-filing the return. Payments made after the April 15th deadline are not included for purposes of calculating late payment penalty and interest.

  1. Go to Input Return ⮕ Payments, Penalties & Extensions ⮕ 20YY Estimated Tax Payments.
  2. Scroll down to the Additional Estimated Tax Payment section.
  3. Delete the date in the Date field, If the date entered is 04/16, 04/17, or 04/18.
    • The calculations defaults to 04/15, so you can leave the Date field blank.
  1. Go to Input Return ⮕ Payments, Penalties & Extensions ⮕ 20YY Estimated Tax Payments.
  2. Scroll down to the Paid with Extension (not later than 04/15/YY) section.
  3. Delete the date in the Date field, if the date entered is 04/16, 04/17, or 04/18.
  4. Enter 04/15/20YY in the Date field.
