The new 1040 Post Card and new Schedules 1 through 6 will require a print set to be created that can be used to print returns that will be mailed via paper to the IRS.

The existing print sets that TaxSlayer delivers will contain the “stacked” version  of the schedules that will contain a “do not mail” watermark.

What does Stacked mean?

We can print two of the schedules on the same page as long as they are watermarked in a way that indicates they are not to be mailed to the IRS.

What will the new print set assigned by TaxSlayer be called?

We are not sure yet, but it have a clear indication that it should be used to print “paper” returns that will be mailed to the IRS.  The IRS requires that each of the new Schedules be printed on an individual page for all mailed returns.

This is just a heads up that changes to print sets will be changing prior to e-file opening in January.  We DO NOT have a specific date when the Schedules will be available to add to the print sets or when the new “stacked” schedules with a watermark will be available.
