Resolving Diagnostic 52389 in ProConnect Tax

If you're receiving the following Diagnostic:

• When electronic filing an extension, the State of Arizona requires an amount due and for the amount to be paid electronically via direct debit.
  Note: Electronic filing of the 204-SBI requires the electronic filing of the form 204.

Follow these steps to resolve:

1. Verify an amount is due, and is set to be paid direct debit.
2. Check Form 204 to see if there's an amount generating.
3. If so, go to Input Return ⮕ General ⮕ Misc. Info/Direct Deposit.
4. Scroll down to the Direct Deposit of Refund / Electronic Payment section for AZ.
5. Under the Extension subsection, check Electronic payment of tax due with extension.

AZ doesn't provide for an automatic six-month extension of time to file - The taxpayer must either file the Arizona Form 204 or the federal 4868 by the April filing deadline.
