I am attempting to file a 2019 return and it is successfully converting but not transmitting.  It is then showing random acknowledgments from last year.  I have updated, restarted my computer, restarted Proseries with no luck.  Does anyone else have this issue?

IRS closed efile system back in December to prepare for the 2020 tax return filing season.   Won't be available until ??  possibly Jan 25th.     https://www.irs.gov/e-file-providers/modernized-e-file-mef-status

Per *many* in-program & IRS announcements, Mef is closed for retooling until later this month.  It happens every year.

Having the exact same issue. Today is February 1st - I'd think it could be transmitted. Tried a dozen times and same thing happens. "Ready to transmit" - doesn't transmit and get last year's information. Ugh!

"Today is February 1st - I'd think it could be transmitted"

The top of this page, and your program, tells you IRS is not accepting individual returns until Feb 12. Even if you send to Intuit, they will hold it.

I too am having that problem so I do not think it is a us problem it is a software issue. 

Would like some answers. 

Thanks
