Janitor Bob Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Can I currently transmit Tax year 2015 electronically? I transmitted and receive a reject from EFC stating submission year is 2016 and should be 2018? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janitor Bob Posted January 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Is it because E-File is closed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack from Ohio Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 When the IRS opens up e-file in a couple of weeks, you will be able to efile 2017, 2016, & 2015. Not until then. Remember, ATX charges $5 each for efiled prior year returns. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when e-file opens, I think I've had to first get a rejection for prior year returns and then recreate the e-file to get the year to change. I don't know if this is still the necessary process or not. Or if it was never the necessary process but I just didn't know what was happening. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WITAXLADY Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 you need to delete the 8879 and add back in before filing a prior year to get it to efile. And it needs to be open to file... When is that? Nothing on website - looks like you can file today!! if you do not have children! or tuition.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
