IRS will shut down MeF systems for year end maintenance to prepare for the upcoming season. Times shown are the IRS cutoff.  Software providers will have an earlier time for transmitting through their service. 

 

Individual returns: IRS will accept returns up until 10 p.m. on Nov 16, 2019 and will reopen in 2020.

 

Business returns:   

Schedule Shutdown for "Send Submissions" only is scheduled to begin at 11:59 a.m., Thursday, December 26, 2019, to prepare the system for the upcoming 2019 Filing Season.

Transmitters can continue to use the other service requests except "Send Submissions" until 11:59 p.m., Thursday, December 26, 2019.

I have three to do who brought me their documents after 15 October. I prepared the "easy" one yesterday to get it out of the way -- but, her SS and her pension documents are missing! Mom is elderly and frail; daughter is dealing with her finances but is an artist and not computer literate. What is it about artists?! (I have a few.) I told her to telephone SSA and retirement board. (Also, missing cost basis info, but I telephoned broker.) I did tell her after 15 November she will have to decide between mailing paper returns or waiting until mid-January. Oh well, on to the next one.
