Diagnostic 7512 returns with pre-computed penalties
 
 
The following diagnostic is generating: 7512. Returns with pre-computed penalties and interest cannot be filed electronically. You must file this as a paper return."
Is this new? I have filed returns with pre-computed penalties prior to encountering this a few weeks back.
 
Paper filing is not a good idea to the processing delays. Providing returns without late interest means the IRS will send the client a notice. I don't like doing this.
 
This is an SCorp for 2019.

I think the problem is with PAYING the interest and penalties with the e-filed return.

Rather than paying through through the e-file, can the client pay electronically through the IRS website?
