Crank Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Is anyone experiencing long ack times on fed efiles. I realize it is probably the busiest time but I thought with the MEF, ack times would improve for the whole season. I have 3 filed over 24 hours ago with no ack. Of course it wont allow me to send the states until the feds come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack from Ohio Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Updated 4-16-2014 at 9:30am Efiles sent by the midnight deadline April 15th were sent timely to the agencies. Please be patient as the agencies struggle to deliver acks for this enormous last day volume. Two-thirds of the federal acks for returns sent April 15th have been received and delivered to the EROs. The remaining one-third of our federal acks will be delivered throughout the day today and possibly even tomorrow. IRS is still well within their published ack processing times; we continue to access their site every few minutes to pull down available acks. State acks will also be delayed, possibly even until Friday or Monday. Also be aware that you could see acks processed out of order and this is to be expected. You could see state acks before federal acks. You could see acks for returns sent later in the day before you receive acks for returns sent earlier in the day. NOTE: Use the Efile Status tool on the Solution Center to view real-time status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
