11608: 1040 - EF Message 5004


Rejects + EF Messages

I entered 401k contributions on the taxpayer’s W2. They appear as a credit on Schedule 3, line 4, but I am seeing EF Message 5004.

To clear EF message 5004:

  1. In data entry, open the 8880 screen, located on the second Credits tab.
  2. If there were current year distributions, enter the amount on the current-year line (line beneath line 4) for taxpayer (and spouse if needed).
    • If no distributions were made, enter 0 (zero) on the current-year line.
