AlexAlexAlex Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Is the IRS acknowledgement system shut down? I transmitted a 2017 tax return (1040). No issues, transmitted successfully to EFC... But when I try to get ACKs, I get nothing. Should I wait or should I delete and re-create e-files? Any advice appreciated. Thanks, Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee B Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Every year the IRS has period of time where all efiles are completely shut down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Alex As cbslee said, MeF is shut down. Since your software provider's EFC has the return, I think ithe return will be held and sent to IRS when the MeF system is back in operational status. That is usually around the end of January when they start accepting the 2019 returns this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
