Just read an article on WebCPA.com that Congress is going to mandate all preparers who file greater than 10 returns to e-file prepared after December 31, 2010. Any thoughts?

What will Mr. Wood do? Discussion: Tax Lawyer commits heresy?

We have a recent discussion on Hedge Fund K-1s that often contain admonitions that such and such form must be filed [926, 8621] which my software does not even include, and which do not appear on the list of forms to attach to 8453. This year for one client, we efiled in September then amended before October 15th to include 16 Forms 8621.

Phase 3 of Modernized E-file, which is scheduled for implementation for the 2011 tax year, will allow scanned attachments to electronically transmitted 1040's.

What about late filed returns and amended returns? Still paper in 2011?

I know that the system will be available year-round, but I'm not sure how late you will be able to file a return.

I think amended returns will be included, but I can't remember all of the details. The larger question is, will our software be ready? I've wanted to e-file 1041's for years, but ProSeries doesn't support it.

I'm too busy to research today, but perhaps someone can find a link to MeF enhancements?
