@zchaka The Online software?
When you first start up 2022, there are 12 or so pages of annoying questions that you have to go thru no matter what.
Once you've started things, there used to be a text link towards the bottom which was something like "Skip to see all income" that gets you to the full menu. (which I don't see anymore because I've already clicked it)

Both the online and downloaded programs are interview based so you do have to deal with a lot of annoying screens that treat you like a toddler.
In the downloaded program you do have the option to do direct form entries by using the FORMS mode however it is highly discouraged because any overrides will void the accuracy guarantee and may keep you from efiling.
What is the point of having Forms Mode if it is highly discouraged?
So you can look at the actual forms anytime you want instead of going thru 6 steps to download a PDF in the online program.
....And,,,Forms mode does allow one to fix certain rare issues that are occasionally tougher, or impossible to fix in the interview.
Still have questions?
