| I am getting alot of questions about how to get the payment (parents of clients) when you are not required to file a return. My minimums do not allow me to do these returns. The IRS.gov site provides details for how to get the payment when you are not required to file a return. This is what I took away from it. Order a Form 1040A from the IRS, fill it out, write "Stimulus Payments" at the top, and send it in. One could probably free file this on any of the free filing sites, however this is little help for a 80 year old who does not have a computer. If these people have to go to a preparer, fees cut in to the already small amount obtainable. Has anyone come accross a simple solution to this? I use Lacerte pay per return, and the $38.50 fee definiteley excludes these people. | |

| I would be pleased to print and send it out. However then I would get calls, what goes on this line? what goes on this line? where do I mail it? etc. I would be better off to just prepare it in that scenario. Maybe the mailings the IRS is doing will address this. I have not heard of anyone getting it in the mail yet, however mine is a small practice. If the mailing does not address it, I may go to the IRS site, print the directions and form and mail it out. Not a bad suggestion. | |
