Every year, I spend 8+ hours opening every individual account and deleting the efile check mark. I do this to empty the EF View list in efforts to keep track of the open files I am working on. (Mind you, though I have a punch list, one or two do get overlooked.) Does anyone have a work around or INTUIT, could you please make this an upload option???
The IRS requires quarterly estimated payments for foreign partners of U.S. partnerships on Form 8813, but Lacerte only generates an annual form. According to the IRS instructions for Form 8813, estimated payments are required and due on the 15th of the fourth, sixth, ninth, and twelfth months each year and that late payments may be assessed. Lacerte now insists that quarterly Forms 8813 should be manually prepared but for the price of this software, it should develop the capability to generate quarterly forms through the software amirite? See "Form 8813" and "Where To File" sections on Page 2, the "When To Make the Payment" section on Page 5, and the "Late Payment Of Tax: section on page 6 of the Form 8804, 8805, and 8813 Instructions.
On the FEDERAL information worksheet whenever there is banking information present it is REQUIRED to answer YES OR NO to whether withdrawal or direct deposit is desired. (Depending on whether there is a refund or money owed).HOWEVER, ON THE STATES, there is no requirement to answer the exact SAME QUESTIONS. It is easy to forget to select because the software doesn't require an answer on the STATE information worksheet, as it does for the federal worksheet.PLEASE MAKE THE SOFTWARE REQUIRE A RESPONSE ANYTIME THERE IS BANK INFORMATION PRESENT - ON THE STATE WORKSHEETS JUST AS IT IS ALREADY REQUIRED ON THE FEDERAL WORKSHEET.Fred Miller, EA H&M Tax Service.

It appears to me that Lacerte is incorrectly applying the Federal SALT limits to Alabama...limiting those with over 600K to just 10K of taxes deduction on Sch A. There is an Alabama SALT Limit override where you can enter the total taxes you want deducted. But we should not have to use the override.
ProSeries currently has several gaps and limitations that should be addressed:Tax Advisory availabilityTax Advisory tools should be available in ProSeries, not limited only to ProConnect. It is not reasonable to expect users like myself—who are accustomed to ProSeries—to switch to an unfamiliar platform just to access Tax Advisory features.Search functionality (Ctrl + F)The ability to use Ctrl + F should be enabled within ProSeries across all pages. This would allow users to quickly find specific words or entries within forms and significantly improve efficiency.Training and clarity on Superseded vs. Amended returnsThere is a clear lack of training and documentation regarding the difference between superseded and amended returns. Even support staff are not fully familiar with the superseded return process. Providing clear instructional videos explaining the differences and proper procedures would be extremely helpful.1040-NR availability across statesWhy is Form 1040-NR only supported for certain states like California and New York? Each year, I have more than 100 new clients from other states, and this limitation directly impacts my ability to serve them and generate revenue.
Pro Series needs to Incorporate E-filing of PA Local EIT returns as part of the Protocol e-filing Federal and PA state tax returns. The fact that we tax pros need to have a SEPARATE PAPER FILING system is inefficient and NOT cost effective for continued use of the PS Software when there are other software companies on the market that have successfully implemented this feature.
For the past several years since Tax Advisory was introduced in ProConnect, despite all the requests we have submitted to have this option added to ProSeries, there has been no response or acknowledgement. In my opinion, Intuit could offer three types of ProSeries: 1) Basic, 2) Professional, and 3) Advisory Professional, each with three different pricing tiers.
I'd like to see a way to force Lacerte to put monthly totals on Form 8962 instead of having it report annual totals when 12 month detail is entered. I have a client where not all columns are the same for 12 months on Form 1095-A, but Lacerte is totaling all columns as if they are and putting them on line 10. My support agent was super helpful but we discovered that there is not a way to make this change.
my client had a 61K loss yet the program insisted on showing the 2012 - 2017 NOL's. Negative one didnt work as an override as it did in 2018 - 2024
The MFJ vs MFS comparison should include the analysis at the state level as well; ProConnect only provides it at the federal level! My practice is based in NJ, and so we have many NJ and NY taxpayers. The benefit of filing MFS actually occurs at the state level for taxpayers earning more than 7 figures. But since the MFJ vs MFS comparison does not provide it at the state level, it is extremely time consuming to perform this analysis manually. I used Drake for many years which always provided the MFJ vs MFS comparative analysis at the state level as well. I feel this should be obvious and standard for ProConnect to provide. I cannot figure a reason why it would not be made available.
