2. Click the Additional Information button for each type of federal and state form and verify the required information.
   • Make selections in the Taxpayer signature and Preparer signature drop-down lists.
   • (Federal 94x forms) If filing electronically, enter the client PIN if needed and enter a business name control.
   • (State forms) Enter any state-specific information in the Additional Information dialog.
3. If you are filing any forms using the Electronic filing method, choose Actions > Process Electronic Forms and click the Transmission Information button. Verify the information entered in the Transmission Information dialog.
