Overview
This guide provides a detailed process on how to prepare a superseded tax return using GoSystem. A superseded return allows you to make corrections to a previously filed tax return within the same filing period. The primary goal of this guide is to instruct users on the steps necessary to create a superseded tax return, ensuring that all data is correctly updated and saved.
Workflow
Step 1: Locate the Return
Begin by navigating to GoSystem and locating the return you wish to supersede. Check the box next to the return and select "Save As.
Step 2: Save As and Modify ID
Enter "Superceded - [Entity Name]" and add an 'A' at the end of the ID to differentiate the superseded return from the original.
Step 3: Update Completion Date
Update the completion date of the superseded return to match the e-file date, which is 02-21-2025. Navigate to "More" and select "Update Completion Date."
Step 4: Remove Original Completion Date
Return to the original tax return and remove its completion date to prevent any conflicts or errors.
