| TP is a partner with his wife. For the last several years, including 2004-2005 their return was filed under a previous biz name. They started using a new company name in 2005, but previous preparer filed under previous company name. Nothing has been done to change the name and now 2006 return is due. I should add that none of the quarterly reports have been filed either, nor have w-2's been issued. TP would like to continue to use the same tax id's, etc. He was told by someone at the IRS that he would just have to send a letter explaining this to the IRS? TP wants to do the right thing. Is there a way he can continue to use the previous tax id numbers and change the name without going through the process of ending the previous partnership? | |

| Yes - check the box on the return "change in partnership name" - and it is changed. Probably need to also change it with the Sec of State where you live as well. | |
