What if my taxpayer declines my request to e-sign Form 8453-EMP or is delaying things?

There are a couple of ways to handle this:

  1. It is likely that your taxpayer missed out on your request email. Click 'Resend E-sign Request' under the By E-sign >> Notify the Taxpayer tab to resend the request for the taxpayer's authorization.

       2. If the taxpayer declines your request to e-sign Form 8453-EMP, check out the options available to download and print a pre-filled Form 8453-EMP. Get your taxpayer to sign the physical copy and upload a scanned copy of the same to complete the process.

As a tax professional, it is your responsibility to get the taxpayer's signature on Form 8453-EMP and file it along with the 94x returns with the IRS.
