For questions about the tax preparer requirement, go to the TRD website, click Tax
Professionals, and then click E-filing Mandates.
Tax Preparers’ Signature Requirements
On PIT-1, page 2 is the Paid preparers use only section. Paid tax preparers
must fill out this section and sign the tax returns they prepare. The preparer
may sign by hand or any other method of electronic signature acceptable to the
IRS. Tax preparers who do not charge for preparing tax returns do not need to sign
the return.
Paid preparers must enter their 11-digit New Mexico CRS identification number*,
FEIN (if applicable), and an IRS-issued PTIN. A penalty is imposed for failure to
comply, as described in the next section.
*A paid preparer who is not required to have a New Mexico CRS identification
number is not required to complete this field. Generally, persons are not required to
obtain a CRS identification number unless they perform services in New Mexico,
have an employee or a business location in New Mexico, sell property in New
Mexico, or lease property employed in New Mexico.
