Last year I spent over 6 hours on the phone with Intuit because I could not e-file my partnership 1065 return. It kept insisting there are errors in the return. It took me to the page where you have to enter a personal representative for the partnership. After I entered all the information it say it requires, it then runs the error check again and would not let me e-file because it NOW says all the information I just entered for a personal representative cannot be entered since the partner filing the return (ME!) is not an EIN. I finally gave up and paper filed the returns.
Fast forward to 2020 and low and behold, the same bug is in the 2019 software. I re-installed the software and updates twice. I installed the software on a new machine that has never had any intuit products on it. Same problem. E-file does not work for a 1065 partnership where the person filing the return is not an EIN .
Am I the only one having this issue?
Who tests this software, a bunch of chimpanzees?
