    E-file error - State failed transmission

    RobertB
    Level 1

    I e-filed a client, but got a validation error due to upgrade needed.  I upgraded then re-submitted the return, forgetting that the State (WI) had been processed ok.  Now I get the following notification:

    Failed transmission on March 12, 2021
    Validation Failure: Error 10: The submission is a duplicate of one that was previously received.

    Resolution: Please contact customer support.

    I logged into my account and searched e-file status, it doesnt appear it was filed to the State.

    How do I clear out the error message to allow me to resubmit?

     

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    IF you want to live dangerously, this MIGHT work:

    E-File (top menu bar) > down to e-file support tools > Clear return > return.

    I'm not recommending this, as I've only done it occasionally over the years and I'm not exactly sure what it did/does. 

    Depending on the return is question... it may be best to make a pot of coffee than call customer support.

    Let us know.
