Proforma Issue With Filing Status Not Carrying Over

Just rolled all of my clients over to 2021.

Was very disappointed there was a glitch and all of the filing statuses were changed to single in the 2021 program. 

Talk to support they said to delete them and then reproforma was the only solution.

Multiple hours wasted.  Very DISAPPOINTING.

Most of us wait until January to pro forma so these glitches can be worked out in updates.

The more I know the more I don’t know.

I ran the proforma of all clients on November 22nd when I installed the 2021 program.  I didn't filing statuses or zip codes as mentioned in another post.  After reading your post I checked for and installed updates and then checked again.  Everything is still intact.  I only tell you this to help you in your trouble shooting. 

I haven't had to run the Tool Hub for 2021. Yet.  But I did update it when I installed 2021.  The Tool Hub has helped with update issues I've had in the past.

I ran the proforma from 2020 to 2021 on 1/4/2022 and the first names didn't show up. Support said there was a bug and to reproforma. So I reproformaed on1/5/2022 and now the spouses name and filing status is not there. It's more than a bug, its got to be a COSTLY virus. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN LACERTE. IT TAKES HOURS TO PROFORMA. WASTE OF TIME and no communication from Lacerte.

Posting here to bump this up, the proforma 20 to 21 still isn't working right. We have missing addresses and email addresses, dependent information and K-1 beneficiary information missing in the Partnership module. Also: the filing status was set to single (no matter the filing status in 2020) and the 'full year resident' box was unchecked. That's all we've found SO FAR.

Is this with the latest 2020 update 42.0107?

If the data is bad delete it and repeat the proforma on that one client after the next update. All of mine are still on hold until I really need them.

This is 42.0109 (federal tax) / 41.1215 (proforma). I was told this morning a fix is in the works. It's not just a few clients, more like 100+ so now we are waiting for a fix.
