| I had a preperer for me file a return that was not intended to be filed. basically it was a return transfered from a prior year that was a former client. return was state only ( maine) of course, w2 had correct ein, and random income and witholding entered generated a refund for the taxpayer. since it was state only the efin( which was not updated to reflect the new valid efin) did not generate a reject. The taxpayer i know is no longer in the state. what should i do? contact state?

| But DZCPA - he will have to find the taxpayer to get a signature. Also there will be a problem if the taxpayer tries to E-file in Maine. I am not sure what you would do if you cannot find the client - perhaps talk to Maine's tax department?

| Why is this your problem?? Who's problem is it?? I'm sure if the Maine tax dept tells him there is a problem, you can explain what happened after he calls you. You might have to just wait.
