Solution
Pennsylvania requires at least 1 corporate officer in Section G of Form RCT-101. This information doesn't transfer from the federal or common state area due to state-specific formatting requirements.
- Go to .
- Add at least 1 officer with a valid name and SSN number. If there's no SSN, enterNONE.
- Do a full recompute, then recreate the e-file.
