More problems with ProSeries not having Form 8864. 

Follow-up to my post on 01-12-2021.  After more than 15 hours on hold with the IRS and then taking our client to the local IRS office, we finally resolved the $20,000 fiasco caused by ProSeries not allowing us to e-file his 2019 tax return.  We can't charge our client for all this wasted time! 

Here is the latest: We had to mail thirteen 2020 tax returns to the IRS last year because ProSeries still does not allow e-filing when claiming the Biodiesel and Renewable Diesel Fuels Credit on Form 8864.  So far, we have received notices that 8 of those tax returns were never received by the IRS even though they show a credit for the taxes paid by check mailed in the same envelope with those returns.  I am so tired of this crap!!  Why can't ProSeries get their sh** together and add a simple half-page, 12-line, Form 8864 to their software?

It is too late to switch tax software for 2021 but next year, after using ProSeries since 1996, we are definitely looking elsewhere.
