Hi Guys and Gals,


I received my eval copy of the Drake software and I have a couple of questions.


1) If using the pay-per-return option, the software says that I can e-file up to 15 returns for $285. Does that mean that I can prepare as many paper file returns as I want as long as I don't e-file more than 15? Most of my clients did not e-file. I am guessing this isn't the case and it is based on 15 PREPARED returns but you never know.


2) How strong is the state on non-resident and part-year State module? My current vendor, Taxact, doesn't do all NR states. I have two (and possibly more) clients that are musicians that work in multiple States and need this functionality complete.


3) Any other gotchas? I am seriously considering using this product going forward.


Thanks,

Michael
