2290 E-file errors

R0000-922-01 e-file error

Filer's EIN and Name Control in the Return Header must match data in the e-File database, unless "Name Change" or "Name or Address Change" checkbox is checked, if applicable.
The EIN and/or Name Control for the return doesn't match what the IRS has on file.

Solution

  1. Go to the General input folder and open the 2290 screen.
  2. Check that the
    EIN
     and
    Name control
     fields are correct.
    note
    • The Calculated field is automatically created from the Name field. Use the
      Force
       field to override this.
    • For more information, refer to Publication 4163, Modernized e-File (MEF) Information for Business Returns, or contact the IRS e-file Help Desk at 866-255-0654
  3. Re-create and retransmit the return.
note
You can also call the IRS E-file Help Desk before electronically filing a return to verify the Name Control and EIN. You'll need to meet one of the following requirements:
  • Be the Tax Matters Partner.
  • Be the Paid Preparer on the prior year return and the paid preparer box on the return to discuss is marked Yes. (The designation expires one year after the due date of the return in question. There are no exceptions or extensions to the expiration date.)
  • Have or provide a Form 8821, Tax Information Authorization, authorizing you to discuss the Partnership's entity information.
