Tax Program Released
Ira

It appears we are registered with the county but not the state of NJ. We have been mailing in our state tax returns.

Will we be subject to any fines because we were not registered for the last four years.

Thanks

Russ,

See my earlier response to Liz for some information regarding these issues. The Java issue appears to have been resolved (at least on my system) as of late on April 13 (coincidentally, after I paid a personal visit to the local Division of Taxation office).

Your extension is good until September 15, 2016.

I have also filed for an extension. How long is the extension good for? We cannot get Java to run to complete the process.

Have the other NJ clubs filled if so can you share how you did it

Hello Laurie, I have still not been able to file NJ tax electronically. I was told that my club is not registered with the state and that may be why I can't access the site.

I was informed that Apple computers would not work.

In addition I am unfamiliar with the PC computers and it is a nightmare using it.

Just want to clarify that we are a Partnership and not a Limiited Partnership.

I am in contact with the state. I actually have phone numbers that are answered, but the computer is so slow that they couldn't hold wait on the phone. The good news is that I did get the extension filed. Liz

HI Laurie, I have run the tax program for Federal and NJ state taxes.

Federal has been sent and acknowledged. However, since my club has 11 members I have to file electronically which has been a pain every year since I use an Apple computer they have not been compatible . This year I was told they are but I get this stage message :

The option selected is only available for Return Years prior to 2015.
Options for 2015 are currently under development

I have been in contact with the state but wondered if you know of anyone else has had this problem. Thanks. Liz

PS Their first response was with a link to the directions on how to fill out the forms. Of course, I don't need those because Bivio does such a good job. Thanks to all at Bivio.

Hello everyone,
The Federal tax program and the 5 state tax programs we provide have been released and are available for you to use now if you go to Accounting>Taxes.
Just a couple of reminders:
1. You can't prepare your taxes if you don't have your 1099 form yet from your broker.
2. You need to do all six steps shown to prepare correct taxes.
Enjoy!

I don't believe so. It appears that the only reason you are now required to register with the state is to get your club's tax ID entered into the database of entities authorized to webfile tax returns.

If any NJ club hears otherwise, please let support know and I will pursue the matter. I am an Enrolled Agent residing in NJ.
