When processing E-File returns for individuals, we are receiving this error message: 

Your request was not understood by the e-filing service. - Invalid XML. cvc-pattern-valid: Value '[email address removed] ' is not facet-valid with respect to pattern '[\w\-\.\+_$&]+@([\w\-_]+\.)+[\w\-]{2,}' for type 'EmailAddressType'. Please verify that your application program is up-to-date.

The E-File does not process.  Any solutions out there?

Welcome to the Tax Pro Community! 

What states do you have on the return? Is it happening on multiple returns?

We are getting this message:

Your request was not understood by the e-filing service.. - Invalid XML. cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'app'. One of '{senderEmail, legalName}' is expected. Please verify that your application program is up-to-date. Problem occurred transmitting efile data

Even if we only choose to file the Federal return and leave off the state (Illinois)
