As a foreign preparer without SSN I cannot get EFIN. FinCen 114 need to be filed electronically only. The software is asking for EFIN to file it. How to file?

Technically, you don't need EFIN to e-file FBAR.  That's just something Intuit imposes.  To e-file FBAR for your clients, all you need to do is to enroll as a BSA E-Filer and you can then e-file FBAR via FinCEN.
