Is there currently a problem with e-file transmission?  Attempted to transmit several times but message said internal problem.

Same here. Here we go again....Intuit/Lacerte efile problem on final day of filing...seems to happen with disturbing regularity.

[mlsmall]

First it said I needed to install an update.  Got one return efiled and now at a standstill.

[dbergin]

Same problem here:(

[lgalvin]

Same issue here all day - not surprising and not good.

[IntuitBettyJo]

Hi there, 

We are aware of the issue and are working to resolve as quickly as possible.  We will keep you updated accordingly.

[Jackie M]

Also having problems here... SOS

[DCL65]

Same problem - really frustrating!!!

[MattG]

It appears that the Intuit/Lacerte servers are being overloaded as the error message appears to be a timeout error when trying to connect to the servers.

[jshenouda]

Same problem!

How wonderful, on the last possible day of tax season, your system goes down.  When the IRS decides to penaltize my clients, i will tell them to call your office for the money

[LARRY1024]

What is ur solution? resubmit only to get the same error??????

[LARRY1024]

Customers service is not there when u need them

[matterfactors]

I am getting the same thing

[JorgeFdz134]

What is the time frame?  We need to know if this issue will be resolved so that we can start paper filing our remaining returns.

[Beebs]

Same problem here

[jessicap]

Still not working- how will we find out when it is fixed? Will it be posted here?

[StanDeal]

Same problem.  On hold with the support line.   They  just came on and said they are aware of the problem and try again later this morning.

[jolene]

same issue here.  Yikes. 

[imcpa]

We're on the same boat. Following....

[PacCPA]

Same challenge - Hope this gets resolved very soon!

[CJR]

On hold with Lacerte for 20 minutes now and they have updated their hold message to acknowledge the e-filing issue and suggested "please try again later today"  as if today isn't the deadline...

[MattG]

Getting the same error message when attempting to send/generate Esignature requests as well.

Just when everyone thought they were cruising down that final lap of tax season, Intuit had to go and waive the yellow flag.  🏎

[GGF]

Same issue with our filings. Thanks for getting the thread started.  Hope you enjoy some time after today. 

[lgalvin]

My question about this is - what happens if this issue is not resolved - we are not able to efile today?  Are there any provisions from IRS if a return is not filed due to technical problems with a software vendor?

[beccad]

We are also down.....

[DJS]

Same issue here.  Tried the fix on Lacerte Support to rename *.QW9 in the Options folder to no avail.  Think that "fix" has now been removed from the Support site.  Reflief was provided to practitioners that missed Sept 15th deadline due to a CCH transmission issue.

[Jackie M]

Has anyone gotten an update from Lacerte as to how to resolve the issue? Or is everyone still down? I'm just curious if calling would get me anywhere... 

[dbergin]

I just re-submitted and the return went through.  Don't know if the issue is fixed or if I just got lucky.

[dbergin]

my return just went through. 

[imcpa]

Thanks for the update. I just successfully submitted a tax return just now.

[PacCPA]

Seems to be fixed - mine went through too!!!!!!!!  🙂

[PacCPA]

Glad this is resolved!

[beccad]

It is working on my end now too thankfully.

[Donna G]

Has anyone tried resubmitting but gotten a failed transmission stating it was already filed?  Yet it still says ready to send?

[CJR]

Are you getting any acknowledgement updates past "received at lacerte?"  

[WL]

I think they have not solved the acknowledge part of the problem yet.

[DJS]

Nothing beyond "received at Lacerte"

[beccad]

Same here.  They all just sit at Received at Lacerte
