cannot be processed through the Department's automated processing
equipment. Therefore, the North Carolina Department of Revenue (NCDOR)
reserves the right to reject forms from unapproved sources. Taxpayers
that submit forms from unauthorized companies may be contacted and
required to resubmit original DOR forms or tax forms generated by
an authorized software developer. In addition, any refund due will
be delayed until the form is processed.

Software Developer: Tax Partners, LLC (A division of Thomson Reuters)
Issue: Tax Partners, LLC is an unapproved software developer for tax year 2008.

It is the Department’s policy for all software companies who wish to reproduce NC tax forms, to gain approval of their forms through the Forms Approval Process. Tax Partners, LLC was required to resubmit their tax information on corrected E-500, Sales and Use tax forms and discontinue use of the web fill-in version in their software product.
