Do Not File your Sales Tax Return with QB 2009 R9!

I have just been informed by Intuit that sales tax reports may not be working correctly if you are using QB 2009 R9. R9 is the update that Intuit asked us to do earlier this month. It is a major update that has caused a bunch of headaches.

To solve the sales tax problem, Intuit is releasing R10 Wednesday December 16th at this link:

You can download the patch beginning December 16th or you can wait until the automatic update runs on the 17th.

But PLEASE do not file any sales tax returns until you can verify (using f2) that you have upgraded to R10. Of course you can always just upgrade to QB 2010 and avoid this problem all together.
