IMPORTANT NOTE TO ELECTRONIC FORMS USERS Updated forms and potential changes are delivered to you in periodic, electronic form updates. In certain instances, the most current version of an electronic form may vary from a printed form. To determine the most current version of an electronic form, please contact eforms@ascensus.com. |
Ascensus' forms and documents are constantly monitored to accommodate changes brought about by new tax laws and, equally important, to respond to your requests and needs. This Forms Checklist provides you with the date of the most current version of the designated form or document. Versions which are technically inaccurate because of subsequent law changes or IRS pronouncements are listed in the column entitled "Obsolete Version." If no date appears in the obsolete column, all existing versions may be used—and so, the current version of pre-printed forms are generally available upon the depletion of existing inventory supplies. This checklist will be updated periodically.
If you need assistance or would like to update your forms inventory, contact a Customer Service Representative at 800-346-3860, option 2, suboption 1.

* | Prior to the 11/2022 update, prototype SEP and SIMPLE IRA plan forms and documents were maintained separately. Now, all the forms that collectively made up the former plan establishment “kits” are maintained within single item booklets. While each form within the booklets retains its individual item number and revision date, an update to any form whereby the prior revision is deemed obsolete deems the entire booklet obsolete. Any remaining prototype SEP and SIMPLE IRA kits/standalone forms should be used with caution. |
