I am getting an error message that I have to register my EFIN with Intuit.  When I go to my account it has the following:

 

EFIN***394ApprovedTuesday, Sep 29, 2015 at 08:00pm EDT
Success! Your EFIN submission has been approved/confirmed and you are authorized to eFile.
 
So why am I getting that error message if this is the message under my account regarding my EFIN #??  I really don't want to send all of the documentation requested if my EFIN is registered.  Is this a glitch in the system?

I think you have to do it more often than 6 years.

The more I know the more I don’t know.

Did you change the business name EFIN is associated with?

And is the message really for verifying your PTIN with Intuit?

I haven't changed anything.  Name, address or EFIN associated with them.  

The error message that comes up when I try to e-file the return says "The preparer on this return has a PTIN that has not been verified.  Return conversion failed."

Someone earlier said you have to do it more often than 6 years.

If no one else is having this problem then I guess I have to send all the documentation they are requesting.  Doing returns anymore has turned into one issue after another.

Look under the preparer tab (in options)

There is a box to check that you confirmed the PTIN. right above the credentials for you
