It is Intuit's Proconnect Tax Online.
Let me take this opportunity to
change the situation and ask
another question:
I have a single nonresident to resident dual status client, he has no income at all during his nonresident period, so his dual status return is the same as a resident return except he cannot take standard deduction which I can force it on the software. I can also add text "Dual-Status Return" on top of the form 1040, and can attached a "Dual-Status Statement", in this simple case, can I e-file it? Does the IRS record it in its transcript any differently if I file on paper or file electronically?
The IRS instruction for dual status says "mail the return", does it prevent me from filing electronically?
