hi,

the return rejected due to no EIN om form 2555. But the tax return was efiled 2017 and  2018 with other company, I do not know what sytem they use, but must not Proconnect.

 

Does any know how to efile with out EIN on form 2555?  Does IRS treat differently wiht different software?

 the return rejected by IRS and state stating that EIN is missing.

But I figured out instead of enter compensation in W2 wages, enter in Other earned Income.

thanks!
