Question
Form 1120 E-filing Issue – Foreign Officer without SSN or ITIN (Ref #9111)
Hello,
I am attempting to electronically file Form 1120 for a corporation that has a foreign officer who does not have a SSN or ITIN. In previous years, I was able to bypass this diagnostic using the “ForeignUS” entry, but it appears that this option is no longer available in the TY 2024 filing.
Is there an updated method to enter the officer information to allow e-filing despite the lack of SSN/ITIN? Or in this case, is paper filing the only option?
The diagnostic I am encountering is:
Ref #9111 – Officer #1: The Social Security Number of the officer entered is invalid.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
