Max W Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 I'm assuming that efiling is closed down now for the rest of the year. Can anyone confirm? TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, now I'm looking at a source that says opens 1/24/2017. Sorry, will try to research further if someone else doesn't before I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max W Posted November 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Thanks, Rita. Nov 30 is great. Usually it stops the week before TXgiving. And BTE, Happy Thanksgiving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee B Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 November 30th is the IRS deadline for personal tax returns. However the ATX blog says that ATX will stop accepting efiles 1 or 2 days before the 30th. The IRS will announce the business efile deadline ( usually just before Xmas ) early next month.

easytax Posted November 22, 2016 Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 Here is the notice on this from the ATX site: 1040 MeF Shutdown/Cutover Schedule IRS has announced that they will stop accepting returns and delivering acks at 11:59am EST Wednesday November 30, 2016. Included in this announcement are e-files for Tax Years 2013, 2014 and 2015. Accordingly, state acknowledgements must be uploaded to IRS by those respective agencies prior to that time. To ensure that we comply with these deadlines and allow ample processing time, the following process will be observed for both TaxWise and ATX submissions: Individual returns (both Federal and State) for Processing Year 2016 will not be accepted after 11:59 p.m.EST on Tuesday November 29th. Not all state agencies process returns in “real-time”, so we are allowing sufficient time for the agencies to post their acknowledgements for pick-up. After the cutoff time, the Electronic Filing Center (EFC) will not accept Individual Returns (Federal and State) until IRS comes back online in January 2017 with the exact date to be announced at a later time. Customers may continue picking up acknowledgements from the EFC through mid-December. 1040 efile open date has not been officially announced. At that time, current year 2016 returns plus 2015 and 2014 prior year returns will be efileable. Business MeF Shutdown/Cutover Schedule IRS will release the dates in early December; as a reference, last year's cutover occurred the week of Christmas. ATX EFC stops sending efiles a day or two before the IRS official cutover date. Acks not retrieved by the cutover date will be available when IRS reopens in early January. Business efile open date has not been announced. At that time, current year 2016 returns plus 2015 and 2014 prior year returns will be efileable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
