Additional / different issue related to NJ State, 2021 NJ-1040, not eligible for Filing, "Pass-Through Business alternative Income Tax Credit..." problem.

[LDTT]

There are many posts on this error.    Possibly related problem is that the printed final review copy lists attachments that are not attached.  Maybe interferes with e-file (if you go ahead) or triggers a later problem when NJ finds indicated attachments are not attached.  These are erroneously listed as attached on my copy:  

Federal extension filed.
The address above is a foreign address.
Your address has changed.
Death certificate is enclosed.
I authorize the Division of Taxation to discuss my return and enclosures with my preparer

NJ-1040-O is enclosed. 

TO BE CLEAR, these are erroneous.  Among other things, I am not dead.

Just to get it out of the way - the Pass Through Business Alternative Income Tax Credit issue is a known issue caused by an update to the New Jersey forms that were just released.  It is being worked on and you should keep checking back to see if it is fixed.

New Jersey named it BAIT.  That still kills me.

The rest of the items you have there are all of the possible attachments that you could have for your tax return, not all that you should have.

Glad you're not dead.

Thank you for replying.

1.  I looked at  NJ TY 2020 print out and the same forms were listed.

2. My 2020 submission was not held up by NJ because of these statements nor the lack of attached forms. 

3. These statements are attached to the copy identified by Intuit as  "Your tax return - The official return for mailing is included in this printout. Remember to sign and date the return."

4.  By signing and dating the return I am making an official statement to NJ . 

5. These statements are not true. 

6. Intuit / TT should not include these statements on this form that is submitted.  They have a preceding page that provides instructions.  This information should appear outside of the official form to be submitted.

> My Opinion:  This inadvertently causes user to make non-factual statements to NJ even if the form gets through NJ processing.  Should be reviewed by Intuit / TT Legal.
