ProConnect Tax Advisor Tool & Data Import EnhancementsNew

1. Ability to Import Current and Prior-Year 1040 Data Prepared Outside of ProConnect for Tax PlanningPlease allow ProConnect to import current and prior-year 1040 financial data that was prepared outside of ProConnect Tax and make that data usable within the Tax Advisor tool.Currently, while prior-year data can be imported, it does not transfer into the Tax Advisor module for tax planning purposes. As a result, tax planning and advisory tools appear to be limited to clients whose tax returns were prepared entirely within ProConnect.This limitation creates a significant barrier to providing advisory services, particularly for:New clientsClients transitioning from other tax softwareProspective clients seeking planning before engaging for tax preparationEnabling full financial data imports from externally prepared returns—and allowing that data to flow into the Tax Advisor tool—would allow firms to deliver meaningful tax planning and advisory services regardless of where the return was originally prepared.2. Import Current-Year Financial Data (Not Only Personal Information)In addition, please expand import functionality to include current-year tax return financial data, not just personal information.Being able to import full current-year financial data would significantly improve client onboarding and allow firms to:Perform proactive tax planning and advisoryAnalyze filed or draft returns prepared elsewhereDemonstrate advisory value early in the client relationshipMore effectively convert and retain clients who have already filed their taxes with another providerThese enhancements would make ProConnect a stronger platform for advisory-focused firms and better support year‑round client engagement, not just tax preparation.Thank you for considering these enhancements. Expanding data import functionality would meaningfully improve ProConnect’s value for tax advisors and firms focused on planning and advisory services.

Tax Organizer List of Documents to Send to PreparerNew

The Tax Organizer's List of Documents to Send to Preparer is based on prior year documents.  But it only lists income documents:  W-2, 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-R, SSA-1099, K-1, and 1099-G.  It does not list A LOT of other documents that we also NEED.  Please enable it to also list the following if it was present in the prior year tax return:* IP PIN    <-- this one is super important!* 1099-NEC or 1099_MISC present in last year's return.  Either list each one or request "All 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC received".* If a Sch C or Sch E or 4835 were present, request "Sch C: list of income and expenses" etc.* If Form 7206 were present, request self-employed health insurance premiums* If Contributions present, request "Charitable contribution receipts"* 1098* Form 1099-G - Certain Government Payments.  The line is listed then, it lists the state or agency on the next line.  But I would like to see it say for example "State of IN, if any received".  I have clients, who are not tax savvy, call to say, I can't find that form!  And they won't find it if they didn't receive a state refund or government program form, such as taxable agricultural payments, for the prior year.There are more ones that would be helpful. The one that has wasted my time most is the IP PIN.  Once you obtain one, you must have it every year!Thank you for your consideration as these items on the Tax Organizer Documents List save time for tax preparers during tax season crunch time!
