The following message was distributed by SPEC this morning:
Background: TaxSlayer software ordering season began on October 2, 2017. Due to an IRS system technology issue impacting the procurement of software; IRS has to delay the processing of the 2017 TaxSlayer software orders. We are expecting to have the issue resolved by the end of this week (December 1st). Please continue to submit your orders. We expect to start processing orders by Tuesday next week.
Until receipt of software, sites still have the ability to complete many site administrative functions, such as verifying site Information, creating security templates, adding preparers, creating/assigning custom questions, etc. VITA/TCE sites should continue to use the Practice Lab for training purposes.
