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

by Intuit•3• Updated 10 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.
