Drake Tax - GA - Preparer Info Not Displayed On 8453

The section Paid Preparer's Use Only section is completed only if the ERO and the Paid Preparer are different. If they are the same, the box Check if also paid preparer in the ERO’s Use Only section is checked instead. This is consistent with the GA Instructions.

If you want the paid preparer's signature box to be filled out (when applicable), go to Setup > Options > States > Georgia and check the option Enable Alternative signature option (All packages), then click OK.
