I have a returning client, I've done her taxes for years and never had an issue with her taxes being accepted upon e-file. She is 69 yo, and has multiple businesses. I get her tax returns done and send them off and get a rejection notice. The error code says that the Primary Enhanced Senior Ded Amt has a value greater than zero, the primary must be at least 65. She's over 65, she's almost 70. How can I resolve this? I have verified her age/dob.

I missed the announcement. I couldn’t get in for a while. I haven’t had to login for ages since I’m “remembered”. However this new platform made me login. Since I’ve been a Lacerte/Intuit customer for decades, I have about 5 or 6 user names and picked the wrong one. I was User12345 or something like that for a while instead of sjrcpa.

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