990 Extension failed final review

Good Morning,

I realize I have another month to file, but I tried to file an extension for one of my NonProfit clients and it says it failed final review - I do have a ton of errors (hate that word - should be diagnostic) as I haven't started the return, other than to check the boxes for filing electronically and adding dates where directed.

Is there a box to "freeze numbers" like there is in individual extensions? 

Or is it that the IRS is not yet accepting extensions yet for returns due in May??

Thanks!

Did you check the box on F8868 to Activate the Form - did you scroll down through the form to see if anything else needs checked/completed?

There were issues last year with the 990 and/or 990-t extension. It is not too early to file an extension for this and I believe the IRS is accepting it. Just my opinion
