E-filing in NJ
Has anyone tried it yet? I'm pretty browser savvy and I
can't get past the Java issues that exist on the NJ treasury
website. I've tried using Edge and Chrome, to no avail, even
following the directions included in the Bivio filing
instructions as well as on the filing website.

To New Jersey's credit, the web filing system does retain all of the information from the prior year. Specifically, EIN, name, address, etc., as well as all of the partners data. So this makes updating and filing relatively simple once you get in.

The basic problem is that you must use Internet Explorer compatibility mode to access the web interface. Also, the instructions on the New Jersey webpage are not quite correct. Instructions say to add "state.nj.us" to the compatibility list. However, you must add the entire URL, https://state.nj.us.

The other problem is that Microsoft edge has been updated so many times that there are few directions on the web on how to use the current version in the Internet Explorer in compatibility mode. Earlier explanations do not work with the current version of Microsoft Edge.

I haven't verified this, but I have no reason to doubt its accuracy.

Thank you Ira. It's all accurate. I did try to use Edge in Internet Explorer mode, but it didn't make any difference. Going to try it on my Mac next.

Stuart,

How far did you get in the process and what was the issue when you couldn't go further? For example, did you get a message about javascript?. Did you get a blank screen? Was there an error message of some sort?

Let me know in as much detail as possible as I am trying to get some action between the NJ Division of Taxation and the Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services (who maintains the web application) to remedy the issue.

Thanks.

Microsoft has changed Internet Explorer Compatibility Mode so often in the last year, that it's difficult to rely on information found on the web.

In most cases, you can try this:

- Start Microsoft Edge, click on the three dots in the upper right, hover over Help and Feedback, click on About Microsoft Edge. This will update Microsoft Edge to the latest version.

- In Microsoft Edge, click on the three dots in the upper right, click on settings

- Click on Default Browser

- Change this setting: Allow sites to be reloaded in Internet Explorer Mode to Allow

- Click Add and add all variations of the website

https://state.nj.us

www.state.nj.us
http://state.nj.us

When accessing the website, if you are prompted to allow Internet Explorer Mode, click Yes.

Good luck,

Dan

Please keep posting your experiences or send them to me directly at irasmilovitz@gmail.com. It's been very difficult to get the Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services to acknowledge that there are issues with their application. I've been trying to get the Division of Taxation to exert pressure on them.

Dan,

NJ efiling is done through a website application at NJ.GOV. It requires transcribing the information from the bivio generated NJ-1065 onto web forms that replicate the printed pages.

I have been able to file with the State of New Jersey this morning.  I am a MAC user.  My OS is macOS Monterey Version 12.2.1 and I am on Version 15.3 of Safari.

I used the following approach to simulate Internet Explorer for a MAC.  I am not sure if this approach will work with any other configurations.

Use the site www.ieonchrome.com and select IE9 in the selection box.  You also need to enter the URL for filing the NJ partnership return and this will take you to New Jersey's site to file.  You just need to then follow all of the instructions that we have been provided.

Good luck.

To New Jersey's credit, the web filing system does retain all of the information from the prior year. Specifically, EIN, name, address, etc., as well as all of the partners data. So this makes updating and filing relatively simple once you get in.

The basic problem is that you must use Internet Explorer compatibility mode to access the web interface. Also, the instructions on the New Jersey webpage are not quite correct. Instructions say to add "state.nj.us" to the compatibility list. However, you must add the entire URL, https://state.nj.us.

The other problem is that Microsoft edge has been updated so many times that there are few directions on the web on how to use the current version in the Internet Explorer in compatibility mode. Earlier explanations do not work with the current version of Microsoft Edge.

It worked in Sierra too. Thanks for the tip. It took me over the 30 free minutes that the site allows you to use legacy IE versions for free, so I paid the $4.99 for the monthly subscription to finish up. Add that NJ E-filing tax form to another reason that I can't wait to move out of NJ. What an archaic POS. I had to enter all of the information (including all of the 10 members K1 info) three times before I managed to do it without the JAVA crashing. For the state with the highest taxes in the country, we have the lowest ranked transit in the country, a quarter of a trillion dollar unfunded liability in the pension/benefits system, a governor who raised the state budget from 35 to 50 billion in three years and everything the government runs in NJ is either broke or broken. If it weren't for the pizza and bagels, I woulda been outta here decades ago.

Thanks again Paul Savarese. Again, excellent workaround.

Ira. Good luck with the state upgrading their form to work without JAVA. The private sector has pretty much rejected JAVA due to all of its inherent security risks. I wasn't going to wait around for NJ to fix it. I live here. I guarantee they do nothing to fix it and will fine all of the small businesses in NJ who don't file on time regardless.

Bivio may want to consider updating their directions for NJ clubs to electronically file using Paul's workaround.

I have been able to file with the State of New Jersey this morning. I am a MAC user. My OS is macOS Monterey Version 12.2.1 and I am on Version 15.3 of Safari.

I used the following approach to simulate Internet Explorer for a MAC. I am not sure if this approach will work with any other configurations.

Use the site www.ieonchrome.com and select IE9 in the selection box. You also need to enter the URL for filing the NJ partnership return and this will take you to New Jersey's site to file. You just need to then follow all of the instructions that we have been provided.

Good luck.

Ira,

These are the problems I'm having trying to file electronically in NJ.

I start here in IE mode on Microsoft Edge (I know that because the icon changes to the old IE symbol):

My user id and password pull up, and I log in. Next page, I select this:
Partnership - On-Line Services - Menu
Then the problems begin.
I've tried every possible exception website address in IE compatibility mode and typing them directly into the Java console (Security tab). I can't get past the Java issue that occurs when it appears to be trying to load last year's information. I've gotten a few error messages, but the last one that has me stumped is "ClassFormatError" - Truncated class file

This occurs after I choose to "Run" the application launching from http://www1.state.nj.us or https://www1.state.nj.us.

Do you have any tips for those of us who do not use Macintosh?
