Business & farm

Any tax preparer that files more than 5 returns per year MUST efile the return ... it is the law.  And if they prepare a substantial portion of the return they must also SIGN the return if you pay them ... again it is the law.

 

So you paid someone to complete a return which you must now redo using a DIY program to efile it when they should have done it all at the same time.   So you paid a pro $100 or $150 to "help" you prepare a return and also paid $120  for a DIY program and took a couple days to get nowhere ...  so trying to save a couple of bucks  it costs you time & effort  ... was it really worth it ???  

 

And unless you are completing a form 1065 or 1120S you will not need a K-1 form for a personal return.  A K-1 is informational  and the info on that form is distributed onto the form 1040 but it is not attached to the 1040.   But if you do you can get any fill in form needed right off the IRS site :  https://www.irs.gov/businesses
