Drake Tax - VA - EF Message 0306

To resolve EF Message 0306, go to Virginia screen 1 and enter the Locality Code and the Resident State from the Spouse and Taxpayer drop lists located near the top of the screen.

• If the client is a resident of Virginia, the locality code will be used from the address on federal screen 1.

  • If the resident state on the return is Virginia, but the address on screen 1 is different than it was in the previous year (different state/city/locality), the appropriate entries will not be pulled to the Virginia return, and will need to be entered in here.

• If the client is a nonresident or a part-year resident, the applicable code will need to be manually entered when a Virginia address is not present on federal screen 1.
