I have my efin number and i tried to efile but it got rejected with the following message:

Details for your rejected filing.

Error message: If first two digits of the EFIN in the IRS Submission Manifest are 10, 21, 32, 44 or 53, then 'OriginatorTypeCd' in the Return Header must have the value "OnlineFiler".
Solution: The EFIN used to transmit this return is not a registered EFIN to e-file 1040 Modernized e-file returns with the IRS. To update your EFIN to include 1040 Modernized e-file returns, please copy and paste this web address in an internet browser to go to IRS e-Services where your EFIN can be updated online. https://la.www4.irs.gov/e-services/Registration/index.htm Or you may also call the IRS e-File Helpdesk for assistance at: (866) 255-0654 Once your EFIN has been updated, please retransmit this return.
Code: R0000-118-01

Are you sure that it is an EFIN and not just a PTIN? You do need both.

 


Answers are easy. Questions are hard!

That’s the error message I got, I’m not able to fill due to that error message.  My ptin & efin are correct, but it’s saying I don’t have modernized return option
