Hello! At this time, Form 940 can’t be e-filed in EasyACCT. The Error 54 message indicates that e-file for 940s is not yet open for the program, and there’s no action needed regarding banking information. We understand this creates additional challenges, especially during a busy filing period. An update will be released for EasyACCT once 940 e-filing becomes available in the program, at which point the form can be resubmitted. The community will be updated as soon as that update is available.

Then the 940 shouldn't have been open for us to e-file it if it wasn't ready.  We went through all the work of E-filing only to get an error about banking format!

Can you confirm if you received a confirmation email from EasyAcct, not just filed and pending? Thank you.

I have filed two separate 941s and 940s but have received no acceptance confirmations yet. Fingers crossed......

I have also submitted a 941 and 940 using QB desktop, and have also not received the acceptance confirmations. IRS could be slow in processing these. They usually are in the beginning.

I just tried to efile my first 940.  Received this error. Crazy.

You need to update and you will be able to file them, but they will get rejected until there is another update available.
