Why for Tax Year 2023 is it necessary to fill out the # of W2's associated with an 1120S before you can file an automatic extension? That information does not transfer to any line on an extension.

You need to get in line to complain. A number of folks have already voiced their displeasure over that.

This another stupid requirement precluding electronic filing even when you uncheck the verification box when efiling extension. Again an example of the continued incompetency at Intuit Proseries.

Thanks for the idea to allow filling of an automatic 1120s extension without requiring the amount of associated W2's. We are changing the status to "Open for voting".

Ruben - you don't need to have a formal vote. Just add every preparer that pays for a business package and they will all agree on the idea.

# of W2s filed for an S Corp is way down on the list of information that I, MYSELF, even care about, much less being one of the initial tidbits of info I search for.

Absolutely Unacceptable. 4 days before due date. 1120S and 1065. Number of W-2's and Prior income needed to file Extensions. We do not have that info. Any info thus the need for extension. It is not required by IRS. Tech says to plug in any number. They are suggesting filing a false return. But wait it is not required by IRS. WHY Then? Am I going to need to print from my $7000 Software and Mail Certified Mail for my volume of Extensions? - Long Term Proseries user - 1996

I agree. Intuit has really lost touch with all sense of customer service. This will be the last year I pay for this program. While you are at it please fix the foreign address issue on form W-2G. Ridiculous that the program has this many issues right before a tax deadline.

The W2G issue was fixed earlier. Run an update or run "repair updates" if you are still having the issue.

Every year I close down for two days to prepare for 1120S & 1065 Extensions. IT IS THE BIGGEST CONCERN A HAVE. HUGE PENALTIES! Now I have to CLOSE DOWN AGAIN TO ENTER WRONG W-2 and PRIOR YEAR INFO TO FILE EXTESIONS AND THEN GO BACK AND DELETE SAID INFO TO ENTER CORRECT INFO THAT IRS DOES ACTUALLY CROSS CHECK ON ACTUAL RETURN - Long Term Proseries user - 1996

OK...backdoor hack to the problem....if you turn off the efile for the return and only leave the efile for the extension you can bypass the bothersome need to fill out the w2 info

@DLH-WAK Thanks for the heads up.

@Intuit_Ruben The 2022 PS 1120-S module worked ok for filing extensions. The 2023 PS 1120-S is not working properly for filing extensions.

Requiring 2023 PS 1120-S software users to vote to fix a programming error is not a good look for Intuit. Just state that Intuit will not fix the programming error anytime soon. Just one more thing that needs to be fixed someday when you can get around to it.

There are a number errors in 2023 programs that are not errors and our in ability to have a product work correctly is very sad and it would be nice if Management would listen to real professionals and to ensure thru beta and alpha testing should be done before a product is released.

I looked at Idea Exchange but did not see it.

Not sure why we have to vote to correct clearly a programming error that impacts thousand of professional tax prepares. Intuit should fix it, they created the problem and has not occurred in the past.

There is an old saying, if it is not broken, do not fix it

You don't have to enter W2 info. Just uncheck the box indicating that the actual return is being e-filed and check the box only for the extension.
