Posted by ams_agarwal on February 9, 2007, 12:10 am Please log in for more thread options I'm planning to file my 1040 for federal, and 1NPR (non-resident) for wisconsin. Since Wisconsin doesn't support efiling 1NPR (only if you are a resident of certain other states which I do not qualify for); Can I efile my 1040, and paper file my 1NPR. When filing 1NPR, WI typically requires me to attach a copy of my federal return. How do I do that if I'm e-filing my federal return. Do I just take a print out of the 1040, and then have both me and my spouse sign-it, or do I just send it without signatures. A little confused..

We efile Federal plus California but sometimes have to paper file one or the other (often because ot the rather silly California restrictions on deceased taxpayers). And I have a client who does Federal and Colorado (his home state) electronically but we file a non-resident New York by paper - with paper attachments of the Federal. Yes it gets confusing, but it's quite normal and usual.

Print two copies of your Federal return, one for your files and one to attach to the WI return. No signatures required unless WI instructions tell you to send a signed copy. -- Phil Marti Clarksburg, MD << ======================================================= >> << The foregoing was not intended or written to be used, >> << nor can it used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties >> << that may be imposed upon the taxpayer. >> << >> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting posts >> << to this newsgroup as well as our anti-spamming policy >> << are at www.asktax.org. >> << Copyright (2006) - All rights reserved. >> << ======================================================= >> Posted by John D.

I believe that you are correct; just print out a copy of your e-filed Federal return and send it with your Wisconsin return. I don't think you need to sign it for WI since you already signed electronically for the feds. -- John D.

I would print the 1040, add signatures and send it with the WI return. As long as you provide a copy to WI it doesn't matter whether you filed a paper 1040 or efiled it. Whether the signature is necessary or not, it can't hurt anything to give them the signatures just in case they want it signed. << ======================================================= >> << The foregoing was not intended or written to be used, >> << nor can it used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties >> << that may be imposed upon the taxpayer. >> << >> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting posts >> << to this newsgroup as well as our anti-spamming policy >> << are at www.asktax.org. >> << Copyright (2006) - All rights reserved. >> << ======================================================= >> Similar Threads Posted Filing status different for Federal return and State return April 11, 2007, 11:47 pm 2009 filing address for federal tax return March 24, 2009, 9:15 pm Question about Late Filing, federal/state May 7, 2008, 2:25 pm Will my state tax refund be taxable on next years federal return?
