As of yesterday night, my e-file returns are not moving beyond "received at Lacerte". Internet connectivity is just fine, restarted lacerte, checked e-file status and it is receiving new e-file returns, just not moving beyond that status. This is for S Corps, which are due today. Is there something going on at Lacerte?

I have Partnership and C corp doing the same thing!

Any response from Lacerte?

It seems to be working again! No idea what happened.

It's a big extended return deadline. Lacerte and IRS systems are getting a large volume of returns. Slowness ensues.

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

Had same prob yesterday and this morning.  After restarting server(s) lacerte started behaving.  We did double check firewall, etc.

I have a similar problem but my returns were sent to IRS but haven't received an updated acknowledgement. Is IRS having a problem?

Unfortunately, it we may now be in the 'hurry up and wait' portion of the e-filing process.  At least, that's what I'm doing.
