I've noticed that the new MEF system is uploading some documents as PDF attachments as part of the e-file: examples are partnership basis statements, supplemental business expense (like 2106). There are probably others.

Can your first sentence be re-phrased: "[...] the new MeF system is
*capable* of uploading some documents as PDF attachments [...]"?BeanSmart website is not affiliated with any of the manufacturers or service providers discussed here. All logos and trade names are the property of their respective owners.
