E-Filing – Attaching an Approved S Corporation Election
1

In the TaxAct® program, you can attach an approved Form 2553 to your Federal and/or State tax return. When the election is allowed to be attached, the program will prompt you to upload the documentation.

An S Corporation election can be attached if:

  • You are electing to be an S Corporation this year
  • S Corporation effective date is before or the same as the date the tax year began

If both situations apply to your return, you will be prompted to attach the documentation during the e-filing steps.

The file MUST be saved as a PDF before attaching to your return. The Attachment Manager will not accept any other file types. To help prevent malicious uploads, we have strict requirements for our PDF standards. If you receive an error when trying to upload your PDF, it most likely does not meet those standards.

?If you need help, go to our Attaching Documents to a Return FAQ.
