Update from Illinois. Any impacted IL returns can be resubmitted at this time.
“We have corrected the problem with our code that was causing returns to erroneously reject for Business Rule IL1040-4000-2. The correction has been tested and was deployed to production at around 2:00 PM CST. You will need to retransmit the returns that were rejected by us for IL1040-4000-2 yesterday and today.
We are also in the process of running through the returns that we held since shutting down the acknowledgement process this morning. It should take less than 30 minutes to run the backlog of returns through.”
Software vendors received the below correspondence from Illinois today. Illinois will provide another update once impacted returns can be resubmitted for processing.
“We are aware of the issue with erroneous rejects for Business Rule IL1040-4000-2. We made a coding change yesterday and deployed it to production around noon. As you know by the rejections you are receiving, there is an issue with the code. We have stopped the acknowledgement process until we have a correction in place. I will email you all again once we have made the correction and deployed it.”
