Update (02/02/2024 10:00 am EST) We have turned on 2023 State Only and prior year e-file for 2022 and 2021.
Note:
The IRS currently has a business rule in place that will erroneously reject any 2022 or 2021 return that has a 1099-R with Federal Withholding. They are working with industry to determine the best resolution. During the meantime, we strongly recommend that you tag any prior year return that you are planning to electronically file that has a 1099-R with a Federal Withholding amount.
Our current plan is to turn on prior year e-file (2022 and 2021) tomorrow (Feb 2) at 10 am EST
Update (01/31/2024 2:29pm EST) We will be turning on prior year (2022 and 2021) e-file on Friday, February 2, 2024 at approximately 10 am EST
Update: (01/29/2024 1:15 pm EST) Don’t panic if you see that the returns you sent have not gone to the IRS. This is Day 1 of e-file and we are monitoring the flow of returns out the door to the IRS so ensure they arrive at their destination with no issues.
Update: (01/29/2024 11:05 am EST) TY2023 e-file is open. We will monitor the turn around time for IRS acknowledgements and post if we see any extreme delays. Remember the IRS can take up to 48 hours to acknowledge returns, but we typically see them within an hour.
The IRS will open their MeF system to accept e-files from all vendors in the industry at 9 am ET
