Sounds like you might need a DeLorean and a flux capacitor to get it printed correctly until they get it updated.

Yes,

The idiots that update our programs are incompetent.  They finally after 20 years got the 940 form on time, found another way to screw their valued customers by messing up the W3.

Them password protecting the new program and their other ways to halt my production are making me think that this is the last year for me to use this software.  This has cause me delay in sending out stuff that I must now hold and wait for updates.   This is costing me time and money.

Intuit, who are you working for?  It sure the hell is not me.

It sounds like you should have changed 20 years ago.

Seriously, why are you still using the software when there have been so many errors over the years?

When I called EasyAcct (Intuit) today, they made it sound like the IRS did not release the 2024 W-3 yet. 

Is it an IRS issue or an EasyAcct issue? 

The password protection might be an IRS requirement.

The IRS currently has the 2025 version released (filed in early 2026).

It is clearly an EasyAcct issue.

Happens every year until they update. You can never get your work done early and you have clients screaming for their w2's. I tried to go to another company but got ripped off $6000.00 from Thompson rueter, so I just stay with EasyAcct. It was better before Intuit bought it, but for the money and 30 years of using the same software it's easier.

Once again Intuit is flipping their users the double bird when it comes to the W3 update.  They can give a crap about their users.  It is costing me time, as my people cannot finish a complete payroll reporting package.  They must revisit those client's files after moving on to do a partial package on another client.

They do not understand that I cannot bill out what is not done.

Getting the form 940 done on time sounds promising...but if you are in a credit reduction state...it is still wrong. Their schedule A has a math error on it. It says FUTA taxable wages = $7000 and Reduction Rate = 0.009. Yet some how multiplying $7000 by 0.009 somehow gets us to 42.00 and not the expected 63.00.

I'm not sure if this is true for New York too but it is the case for California.

Intuit does it all of the time.  That is why they sold you EasyACCT even though it isn't done and doesn't work correctly.
