XTF: XPRESS TAX FORMS SOFTWARE
GENERAL

Which Microsoft Windows version can run Xpress Tax Forms (XTF)?
XTF can operate on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT 4.0, 2000, and XP.

Is it possible to upgrade to different versions of XTF or Electronic Filing Add-on to my existing XTF software?
Yes, additions to your original version of XTF are feasible; however, we encourage you to call us at 1-866-685-6100 for more information.

What is the difference between the single and multi-user versions?
The multi-user version is designed for multiple computers that are linked together with the ability of accessing shared files. The single version only allows access of data at one computer at a time -- there is no data sharing.


ELECTRONIC FILING

Does XTF support the Filing Information Returns Electronically (FIRE)?
Yes, XTF offers E-filing for 1099s with IRS and W2/W2C with SSA.

Does XTF meet the IRS requirement format for Electronic Filing?
Yes, XTF follows all rules and regulations required by the IRS and SSA.


IMPORTING DATA

Can XTF import data from other data file formats?
XTF can import data from MS Excel™, and ASCII text file formats with some restrictions (with the Standard and Professional versions, only employees'/ payees' data such as name, SSN (EIN), and address can be imported).

XTF can import files that are either tab, semi-colon or comma delimiter.


In addition to general company's and employees' data conversion, can employee's dollar amounts be imported too?
Yes, with the Premiere version, employees'/payees' dollar amounts of all tax forms as well as employees'/payees' data (EIN/SSN, names, addresses) can be imported.

Can technical support staff assist me in importing data?
XTF's importing procedure is easy to use, but if you have any problems, our technical staff will be happy to assist you.


DATA ENTRY

What is Employee/Payee duplication and does XTF allow it?
XTF disallows employee/payee duplication, which occurs when there is more than one employee/payee with the same ID (SSN or EIN) under one payer. However, we do allow different tax forms can be processed for an employee/payee under the same payer.


PRINTING

What printer does Xpress Tax Forms support?
XTF can support laser, ink-jet as well as dot-matrix printers from a variety of brands such as HP, Brother, Lexmark, and NEC.

Can I print all tax forms on blank paper?
Yes, to save you time and money, XTF offers users the ability to print all copies of W-2, W-3, W-2C, W-3C, and all other copies of 1099s, 1098s, and 5498s, with the exception of copy A of the 1099s, 1098s, 5498s and 1096 forms. In addition to various copies, you can also print in different formats such as 2, 3, and 4up for W-2 tax forms.

Different printers have different settings and measurements that can cause problems with text alignment, what does XTF offer to minimize these errors?
We offer a line by line adjustment in the print screen, which allows users to either move everything up or down by a few lines. Additionally, there are options to shift to the right or left for precise alignment.
