Support CenterReasons for common Form 1120-Corporate/1120S-S Corporation e-file rejections-SureFire
The following are some of the most common rejections for Form 1120/1120S e-files:
Punctuation problems: Because these e-files are in XML format, they do not have the same rules as Form 1040 e-files, and the program allows punctuation. We will hopefully be able to limit this in the future. Currently, most punctuation is removed at the EFC.
There is a missing dash (-) in the SSN or EIN field on Schedules K-1.
The Depreciation Worksheets for Form 4562 were not used. They are not always completely necessary, but if the tax return has listed items or vehicles to depreciate, there is not a way to format the Method, Recovery Period, or Convention correctly. The worksheets do this automatically.
If the ERO is Self-Employed and does not have an EIN, then the section asking for the Firm Name, Address, etc., should not be completed.
Required information is not entered in certain fields, such as Business Code.
