How do I get Proseries to electroncially file a MD return with PTE withholding? This can be done with other tax software.

I get a response from Proseries that MD requires it to be filed on paper.  I work with other software that allows efiling wiht PTE withholding.  Is there a specfic spot in the program to put the PTE withholding so the return can be filed electronically?

Been available for e-file for a few years.  Take PTE withholding and add it to Form 502CR, Line 9 for the credit.  Then do the Addition adjustment of the exact same amount on Additional Worksheet, Line r.  Attach a pdf of the K-1 to the return and you're done.

Thanks for replaying however, line 9 on the MD 502CR is not available for entry as it is a subtract of line 8 from line 7!  So the response is not helpful.

Look at Part CC, line 9.  You're looking at the wrong section of the form.

Thank you, it worked.  However if you had said in CC section line 9 I would have found it immediately.  Also if Pro Series had help for this I wouldn't have had to ask the Community.  [Also you can't call help on Sunday as they are not open and I do a lot of my work on Sunday.]

You're insulting me for giving you the answer?  Hmmph.
