Hello All. This is my first year doing tax returns on the side. I want to efile only about 5 tax returns in all. I do have a PTIN. I input my first client's return but have the red diagnostic for EFIN. Customer support told me I should be able to efile. If not, how long does it take to get an EFIN?

Customer support evidently is a bit on the confused side -------- as usual. In order to e-file you do need an EFIN. Right now you are probably looking at not making the April 15th deadline if you want to e-file. Since you are preparing under 10 returns you can still paper file ----------------- if your 5 clients are willing to do that.
