1/30/2019 – Impacted returns can now be resubmitted for processing.

Problem:

Reject Code: R0000-019 | Category: Data Mismatch | Severity: Reject

Solution:

We will be issuing a software update on January 29th to resolve this.  Please hold returns with this reject until further notice.

Update 01/30/2019

This has been resolved, however you will need to send the states back as “State Only” returns.

How do I identify the returns?

1. Click on the Rejects button (next to the Messages button)
2. Select Validations from the drop down menu

Selecting the rejected link will display the following validation error

You can now click the green Select button next to the return.

Navigate to the e-file section

Select the Send State Only box

Read and click the Warning.  (remember, the federal return must be selected with an e-file option, but it will not resend)

Click Save  on the e-file page to advance to the submission page

Click select on the Save and Transmit Returns button

Select Main Menu to return to the welcome page

You will need to repeat these steps for each return with the state validation error.

Update 01/29/2019 

The following two states have been identified as not correctly receiving the SIDN from the federal return:

• RI
• WI

We estimate having having a fix for this deployed on Wednesday, January 30th.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–

The following list of states is not correctly receiving the SIDN from the federal return:

• AR
• ID
• KS
• MD
• ME
• NY
• OK
• VT
• WV

What does this mean?

We need to update the state program to accept the SIDN from the federal return.  Once we do this, we will notify you of the next steps.  These did not pass validation to go with the federal return.

Update 1:20 pm EST:  PDF rendering issue has been resolved.

Update 12:19 PM EST:  Our engineers are still working to determine why printing will not render the PDF.

UPDATE 12/4/18 – 2018 1040 View has been corrected.

UPDATE: 11/30/18 – Style-sheets are now loading as expected. This has been resolved.

11/29/18 – One impact related to the deployment from this morning caused an issue with consistently loading style-sheets within the 2018 program. Generally, this can be resolved by refreshing your window (sometimes it can take a few tries). We are aware and working to correct this display issue. Below is a screenshot of what may be impacted: Icons on the left navigation menu, the EDIT and DELETE icons, and certain other icons may not properly be loading initially.

This is only an issue related to downloading style sheets and also impacts the data being displayed on the 1040 view. Issue ID 2242

All years are now generating PDFs outside and inside of the tax return.
