Effective today, the IRS Modernized e-File (MeF) System for Federal Business Returns is now open for e-Filing and our Central Site is accepting the following returns:
- 1120 – Corporation Income Tax Return
- 1120-S – S Corporation
- 1065 – Partnership Income
- 1041 – Estates and Trusts
- 990 – Tax-Exempt Organizations
If you have already purchased the 2022 Business Package, TY2021 returns and two prior years can now be e-filed. In addition, for partners who were unable to transmit prior to the Business MeF shutdown on December 29, 2021 and pick-up ACKS for already e-Filed business returns, you can now transmit to retrieve those ACKs (using your 2021 software for TY2020 business returns).
If you are interested in purchasing the 2022 Business Software and to learn more about our flexible package and pricing options to fit your specific needs, please contact your Account Manager at 844-440-8829 or email us at sales@utaxsoftware.com.
Software Version Reminder:
- The 2022 Federal Corporate Program for preparing TY2021 business returns was released in December and is currently at Version 2022.002. Be sure you transmit often, especially at this time of the tax season, to ensure you are always at the latest software version before preparing and/or transmitting returns for your clients.
