Hi All,
I wanted to have your opinion on this: we filed form 3115 for a corporate client (automatic change from cash to accrual) with form 1120 (form 3115 was attached to the e-filed return). Per the instructions a duplicate copy of the forms needs to be mailed to the KY office of the IRS. The duplicate copy was not sent per my client (was sent to him and he forgot to mail it)
What are my options? Should I tell my client to mail it now even though it is technically late (per the instructions you are supposed to send it at same time of the return at the latest)? Is the method change still valid? Do I need to file an amended return with original form 3115 attached and then at the same time send a duplicate copy of the form 3115 per the rev-proc?
Thank you in advance for sharing your thoughts. I am new on here and looking forward to contributing as well.
Steven
