PreparerPersonGrp must have value.

Solution: The Preparer assigned to the return must have a phone number. Go to Settings, Preparer Info, and verify that the Preparer assigned to the return has a phone number.

I have checked the solution and we do have the correct phone number listed. I called support and tried changing from Self Pre-pared to Non-Paid Preparer as suggested but was rejected. I have changed my Designee PIN because was told that the ERO and Designee PIN should not match. My return was rejected again.

Is the rep, the preparer? If so, is the preparer set up in Settings, with a phone number?

If not the preparer, is everything completed in this screen?
