Business Representative Information

UltraTax CS defaults the business representative to the name of person signing returns on Form 502. Use this section if the federal return isn't being filed electronically or if the Virginia business representative is different. Virginia requires both a first and last name.

Electronic Funds Withdrawal Information

Electronic funds withdrawal for balance due returns: Form 502: Date of automatic withdrawal
Enter a date earlier than the due date of the Virginia Form 502 to authorize automatic funds withdrawal for payment of a balance due return.

Personal Identification Number (PIN) Information

Use this section if you're using the Practitioner PIN option to sign the return electronically. This will generate Form VA-8879P. Leave this section blank if UltraTax CS should generate Form VA-8453P.
Taxpayer PIN
Enter the taxpayer’s self-selected PIN. Enter any 5 digits (except 00000). If all fields in this section are blank, UltraTax CS will use the Taxpayer PIN entered in the ELF federal screen.
ERO PIN
Enter the preparer PIN, which is a self-selected set of 5 digits (except 00000). The actual Electronic Return Originator (ERO) PIN is an 11-digit number. UltraTax CS uses the 6-digit IRS assigned Electronic Filing Identification Number (EFIN) and the 5-digit self-selected PIN to determine the ERO PIN. If all fields in this section are blank, UltraTax CS uses the ERO PIN entered in the ELF federal screen.
