I didn't want to have to learn new software. Their training session was too late so I will be crossing over to Drake next year. Most of you all use Drake so it will be easier for me to "communicate" in 2010. I'll be counting on you to be an "old hand" on Drake by then, Arnie!!

Have you asked ATX or another practitioner that uses ATX for the old programs? I would think they would give them to you. I got a lot of old programs from Drake and other practitioners when I bought Drake in 2000 going all the way back to 1987. It saves a lot of handwriting and time. I would think your license covers all of ATX's old stuff.

That would be nice. Since I just started my own practice, I only have ATX from 2005 and forward. I will have to go out to the IRS website and do the old ones by hand. It will be a good exercise for me, I think.

However, I would like any tips from anybody as to what to do and what
not to do before I ask the IRS for copies of anything.
He has a notice from that state that they filed a return for him for
2004. They want the taxes they calculated.
I'm in the middle of a sales tax audit for this guy for 2004-2008. So,
it is really hard to get 2004 done without having the previous years
done first.
I know I sound really disorganized. I feel like I am--I have been
inputting into QuickBooks like crazy, just trying to get a grasp on all
of this financial information that he has been giving me. He gives me
it in pieces as he finds it.
