The transfer from EasyACCT only works if you are on the same version in both programs. For example, the 2021/2022 version of EasyACCT only transfers to the 2021 version of the IRS program.
Use the Information Return System (IRS) to edit, print and file forms electronically. The program also provides forms that aren't supported in EasyACCT.
