received by intuit since 3/21/20 not forwarded to irs

I transmitted 3 returns yesterday 3/21/20 about 4 pm Hawaii time that was received by intuit and that's where it's at as of now 3/22/20 9:38 am. Any one having the same problem? Any solutions?

Try highlighting the returns and choosing UPDATE acks of Selected Returns (not the regular received acks), see if that pulls them in.

I tried it still getting the response received by intuit

An IRS email this morning reported:

The MeF Production and Assurance Testing System (ATS) environments are currently unavailable due to an extended scheduled maintenance build window on Sunday, March 22, 2020. A follow-up Quick Alert will be issued when both environments are fully operational.

Please refrain from accessing the MeF Systems during this maintenance.

Please monitor the MeF Operational Status page  for any future updates.

Bob I didn't get that email from the IRS so I looked it up and found it. Thank you very much for your immediate attention and response greatly appreciated. Thank you again. Aloha from Hawaii

Yes, I have e-filed several today and they seem to be in a holding pattern.  I usually have them back within the hour or less, except for maybe a state.  I e-filed a Federal and Hawaii yesterday earlier in the day and they were back (both) within the hour.
