Drake has chosen not to support the two new Portland-area taxes this year (Metro SHS income tax and Multnomah PFA income tax). There's no way within Drake to fill out the forms, calculate the tax owed, add it to the "Results" letter, or anything like that. And no e-file.
This is embarrassing for me as a tax pro, because from what I can tell, do-it-yourself tax software (Taxact, Turbotax, etc) will be capable of handling them, e-file and all. I could be wrong about that, but that's the gist of what I've been hearing from contacts at the Portland Revenue Division.
What would you bill for a couple of filings that the software should be able to handle, but can't, and therefore will require a lot of extra work? If Drake supported e-file of these forms, it might average 5 minutes of work per client, times 150 of my clients who are likely subject to the tax. Since Drake doesn't support the forms, it's going to probably average 20-30 of work per client. Maybe more.
(It will be particularly difficult to handhold some of my clients through the process of registering on the Portland Revenue website, which wouldn't be necessary at all if I could e-file the forms through Drake.)
Drake has certainly fallen short for me in the past, but this definitely takes the cake!
