    "I'm having same issue"

    @taxman42 

    The IRS isn't accepting submissions until Feb 12th. You should sign up for their e-newsletter, so that you would have seen this come across today.

    Same issue.  Trying to E-file 2019 tax returns & extensions, not 2020.  Is the IRS E-File open for previous year tax return submissions?  Do we have to wait until February 12th to file 2019?  Have some FY filings and older returns to file, but not transmitting to Intuit.  Files are being converted, but not transmitted to Intuit.

    Not 2020 filings.

    Filings for 2019.

    Is Modernized eFile (MeF) System open to accept filings?

    Wow; "not open" doesn't seem to get across. I wonder what else the IRS can do to help people understand they are not open for efiling?

    "but now I will wail until Monday."

    Which is a Federal Holiday.

    I'm just trying to convert them for efile but it pulls up a bunch of completed returns and says they're all successfully converted. Only problem is they've already been processed.

    Not efiling. Trying to convert for efile. I can convert 2018 clients with no problems. Not 2019!!!
