Paid with extension
Each time you print the extension (via File then Print Extensions), the application:
  • calculates the extension payment amount and enters it in this field, and
  • prints this amount on Form 27, Page 1.
Alternatively, you can overrule the calculated amount by entering the amount actually paid with the current-year extension in this field. The new amount is then displayed in black.
note
  • To delete the overruled amount and restore the original calculated amount, right-click the field and select
    Delete overrule
    .
  • To confirm the accuracy of the overruled amount, right-click the field and choose Acknowledge overruled data.The application then disables the acknowledge functionality from the right-click menu. To restore the original amount later, you will need to manually enter the amount.
  • If desired, you can set a user preference to mark fields for which you overruled the calculated amounts and to list all overruled amounts in the Diagnostics window.
