i am sitting on over 300 individual returns that i can't even print or view a copy of the NC return.  i collect my fees till i can give them some kind of copy.  you are killing my business.  i have no revenue yet.  and you expect me to pay the total deferred tax preparation software cost by March 1st.  wish me luck.  i have used Lacerte over 25 years and can't believe this is happening.  i have never charged my clients before i furnish them with the tax returns.  we spend so much time trying to explain why the return is not ready.  i will lose clients over this.  other preparers are filing the returns.  makes me look so stupid.  the stress is unbelievable and i am expected to pay the staff on no income.
