Hello,

I am new to this, and could use help. A return I submitted was rejected by the IRS do to "the EFIN used to transmit this return is not registered EFIN to e-file 1040 Modernized e-file returns with the IRS."

Thank you.

Do you have a valid EFIN?

@IRonMaNBased on my Tax Prep Credentials, I do have a valid EFIN. I also checked the IRS e-services and my EFIN is valid.

Is this the first return you've Efiled? Do you have an EFIN? Have you uploaded the application summary or acceptance letter to Intuit so they can update your license?

Thanks for the replies. I checked my profile under TAX PREP CREDENTIALS, and it says "Approved. ***123" under EFIN VERIFICATION. Does this confirm that I have a valid/verified EFIN?

@egerolacpaAre you using PTO or ProSeries. The article Lisa sent you is for PTO but EFIN works the same way whichever Intuit ProConnect product you use.

You may also want to check that your firm info matches what you have for EFIN. If your firm info, which pulls onto the return under the Paid Preparer section, does not match the IRS' record for EFIN, the returns you e-file may be rejected.
