Tax Information Form Error - Special Characters

If you receive an error message that says:

Names must be less than 70 characters and may contain only letters, numbers, spaces, "&", and "-".  For names with apostrophes, commas, or periods, omit those characters.  (Example: "John O'Reilly, Jr." should be written as "John OReilly Junior")

See screenshot below:

The IRS only allows up to 70 characters for your name or your Organization's name.

The IRS will only accept letters, numbers, and the following special characters:  spaces ( ), ampersands (&), and hyphens or dashes (-).

If your name or your Organization's name contains any other special characters such as commas, periods, or apostrophes, you need to omit those special characters.
