Requirements

Prepare the federal income tax return on the appropriate IRS forms. (Even if you use a software program, you must turn in manual entries on IRS forms.) Copies of those forms and instructions are available at www.irs.gov. Form 1125-A is required if there is inventory. You will need to prepare pp. 1-6 of the 1120. Also prepare Form 1125-E and Schedule G if necessary. You will not need to prepare (insufficient detail) Form 4562. Please prepare M-1 instead of M-3. 

Additional Requirements

Prepare a brief top sheet summarizing the factual information in the format of the tax formula.
