The sequential numbers of the RL-1 printed copies is not sequential and some of the numbers are outside the range assigned to me by the government. The numbers are not visible on the" Review" display but only on the printouts.
For example my assigned numbers are from 10001 to 10025 and the numbers printed on the top right corner of my 5 RL-1 forms are 10020, 10025, 10036, 10045 and 10051.
I've never known Rev Que to assign Rev-1 numbers.
The numbers the system is using look right to me.
The last two digits always have gone up by one each, e.g.:-
###12, 23, 34, 45 etc.
Hi Nadia,
The EFILE Sequential numbers (aka 2nd Series Sequential Numbers) assigned to you by MRQ are 8 digit numbers. QuickBooks will then add a 9th digit to the end of the number as a check digit. This 9th digit comes from a formula supplied by MRQ. For the pupose of your question, ignore the last digit you see on the RL1 and you should see that the numbers are indeed within your supplied range and in sequential order. (1001, 1002, 1003, 1004, 1005...)
The 2nd Series Sequential numbers are only generated after the RL1 forms have gone through the EFILE process. This way, if the RL1 needs to be Amended, the EFILEd form will contain both the original number and a new number.
By design, neither the 1st or 2nd series numbers will show in the Review window.
Nadia B - I have a question for you. How did you get the numbers from the Québec government?
It looks like you will need to fill out the form ED-430-V located here:
