How do you fix E-file reject code IND-689-01

[cjk1]

I have a 2019 amended return 1040X that rejected because of the primary signature date must be in current processing year not sure what this is or how to fix it Error code IND-689-01

The Efile PIN date, the date the client signed the new 8879 showing the amended figures, needs to be in 2021.

Ok but where do I fix that

The same place you entered it the first time

I changed the date to current date and the return unable to pass federal final review and unable to efile-the tax return.

Use the current date, then go out to the EFCenter to Efile, choose Convert and Transmit and uncheck the Error checking on Conversion

It does nor work for 2021 tax year

I EF a 2021 amended the other day, I used the current 2023 PIN date, and I didn't need to disable error checking, so I think that got fixed in an update at some point, make sure your product has been updated.
