These survival hints may be useful for new site coordinators and transmitters.
  • In California and several other states, it is possible to transmit the federal and state returns together, and this leads to returns being accepted faster.  However, every once in a while after the state return is accepted, the Federal return is rejected for some reason.  If reworking the Federal return does not result in changes to the State Return, things may be alright.  However, on rare occasions, the change in Federal return may have an impact on the State Return.  This means that the state return will have to be amended.  To avoid this problem, do what an experienced transmitter has suggested - transmit the Federal returns first, then the state returns.
  • Try to recruit an IT savvy volunteer for the site.  Some of these volunteers are less interested in tax preparation and more interested in the challenges of setting up the network and automating the process and experimenting with configurations that they otherwise could not do in a corporate setting.  Take advantage of that desire!
