The extension includes IRS Forms 4868, 2688 and 2350. The e-file acceptance letter replaces Form 9325, while providing important information to your client.<\/p>\n<p>The e-file acceptance letter for an accepted tax return includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Date of acceptance and the applicable service center.<\/li>\n<li>A contact phone number for the IRS.<\/li>\n<li>Refund information, including the refund amount and method of payment.<\/li>\n<li>Balance due information, including the amount due and method of payment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The e-file acceptance letter for an accepted application for extension includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Date of acceptance.<\/li>\n<li>Amount due information, including the amount due and method of payment.<\/li>\n<li>Letter type includes tax return, amended, extension, estimated payments, US-Form 114, US-Form 114-SP and certain state forms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>E-file Activity:<\/strong> This will print a report showing the clients\u2019 current tax return status. You can choose to include more than one status on the report, or only print out a specific set of clients with a certain status. The e-file activity report includes the previous activity of the return, and if it was rejected, you have the option to print out the detailed report. The detailed report will include the necessary steps to take to ensure the return is accepted, or provide further instructions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>E-File Outstanding<\/strong>: View the status of all tax returns sent to Lacerte, but not accepted by the IRS\/Department of Labor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Client Lists: <\/strong>This gives you the ability to print a list of clients that includes the name only, name and phone number, or an extended client list, including address. You also have the option to include the dependents listed on the return.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Letter:<\/strong> With custom letters, you can create form letters for any situation. These letters are similar to client letters that print with the tax return. While client letters cover filing instructions and information, custom letters can include any information you want. You can create up to 99 custom letters per program.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summary Reports:<\/strong> Using summary reports, you can view statistics for clients, preparers and your firm. The program reads data generated through Lacerte to print client reports and practice reports. Client reports identify clients in the database based on the forms they filed, the preparer who prepared the return, tax brackets, processing date, any billing information and tax item amounts. Firm reports include cumulative statistics about your practice. It lists the federal tax forms prepared, percentage of clients filing each form and averages of various tax items, including total income and total billing. Preparer reports include a cumulative analysis of returns completed by each preparer; you can base the percentages on the preparer or firm percentages.<\/p>\n<p>You can also print reports based on the statuses assigned to your clients to track your firm&#8217;s tax preparation process, as well as a report for clients assigned to a group of preparers, assigned final status and even list them by the assigned preparer. For example, you can create a report for Mary O&#8217;Neill, a preparer in your firm, and view all her clients with extensions and final statuses.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the \u201cStatus Reports\u201d list, at the \u201cPreparers\u201d folder, click the box(es) next to the preparers you want to include in the report.<\/li>\n<li>In the \u201cList by\u201d folder, click the box(es) next to the option by which you want to sort the report.<\/li>\n<li>In the \u201cStatus to Print\u201d folder, click the box(es) next to the statuses you want to include in the report.<\/li>\n<li>Click \u201cprevious\u201d and \u201cnext\u201d to move between the different reports.<\/li>\n<li>Click \u201cprint\u201d to print the report to a PDF file, document management system (DMS) or a printer.<\/li>\n<li>Click preview to see any changes you make on-screen before you print.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Create a custom report to include various items from the selected clients&#8217; files to fit your tax practice&#8217;s needs. When you create a custom report, you can select which fields from the client detail to include and the order you want them to print. You can select from more than 325 fields. For example, you can create a report summarizing which clients are filing an electronic return and what their e-file status is.
