Lacerte 2019 - 1040

Is anyone else getting the client phone and email below the client signature spot on page 2 of 1040? If so, did you get is resolved? How so?

Already spoke with Lacerte and made sure that in the master settings this is suppressed. Still printing this way.

Edit: I did take this screen snip myself. It is a printed (to pdf) Client Copy from Lacerte 2019. I edited the client phone number and email address so you can get a better idea of what it looks like. I also removed our firm/preparer info in pdf. 

Please visit my community suggestion post to vote on having this as an option.

Upon further research on page 61 of Instructions to the 2019 Form 1040 states

"Phone Number and Email Address

You have the option of entering your phone number and email address in the spaces provided. There will be no effect on the processing of your return if you choose not to enter this information. Note that the IRS initiates most contacts through regular mail delivered by the United States Postal Service."

Edit: I submitted a suggestion to Lacerte. Give is a thumbs up if you DO NOT want this to print or at least have it as an option!!!

Talked to Lacerte support - I guess this is something the IRS is now including on the forms.

Thanks for looking!!
