When is the latest I can efile a 2017 1041 return?

If the return had an extension, the deadline for efiling is midnight 10/15/20.  If there is no extension, it is midnight 04/15/20.

I was going to go with "up until whatever time you go to bed at night".  But I am a little confused as to why there would be different deadlines if an extension was filed back in 2018.  Wouldn't they have until e-filing shuts down sometime around November of next year?

Yes. I was thinking in terms of when the return becomes a dead return not efiling! Those deadlines would have been the same dates in 2021.

I may have tried but I didn't succeed!
