E File Shut Down

I have fiscal year corporate returns that are on extension (due this week) and was told today we are unable to e-file until the system is available on January 25, 2021.

Is this correct?  How can this happen.  I am being told to file on paper.  That's not acceptable.  This is last years fiscal year return.

It all started when I was unable to obtain an eSignature request.  Got dropped from phone transfer as well.

Business returns opened for Efiling last week, its 1040 returns that were still waiting to open.

But is Intuit accepting them?  A year or two ago an Intuit Employee said they hold everything until the late-January opening (even though business returns open in early January).  Not sure if that is true or not, but with Intuit's history of stupidity, it could be true.

I was able to e-file the corporate returns and they were accepted. 

Now I see that Intuit is refunding my eSignature purchase for the 2020 year?  Doesn't make sense as I still have another fiscal year 2019-20 corporate return to file. 

Guess I will have to contact technical support and talk to them about the eSignature issue


Good news about efiling the corporate return. The rest sucks.

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