2019 Efiled Amended Return rejection

[lbones]

I have amended a 2019 tax return I filed last year.  It was rejected with the error detail stating - the year of the PrimarySignatureDt in the Return Header must be equal to the processing year.  The taxpayers signature date must be in the current processing year.  I am at a loss as to how to correct.  I have updated and refreshed my 2019 software.  I do not follow what the error detail is telling me to do.  Help

You need a current year PIN date.  You had the clients sign a new 8879, right?

Yes, new 8879 has been signed.  I have just resubmitted the amendment.  Hopefully this resolves the problem.  As always you are a life saver

Changing the date to the current year does NOT work.  It's still rejecting.

And youre getting this same rejection message as the original poster of this thread? 

"PrimarySignatureDt in the Return Header must be equal to the processing year"

or are you getting a different rejection message?
