In years past Lacerte is usually waiting for Texas to open up their online filing website and then get approved for e-filing. It's been the same return for years and super simple but is always one of the last states to approve. I called a couple times in years past and the agents reply "you realize it isn't due until May correct?". To which i reply - you just don't get it do you - we want to press a button and the federal and state gets filed at the same time and move on and not have to remember to go back and file the &^%$ Texas return. This year TX changed things so there no longer a "no tax due" - you don't file a TFT return if under the threshold - but you still have to file the Public Information Report - so absolutely nothing was accomplished in my mind and they just made it more confusing - but probably the reason for the longer delay.

Rant over.

Lies,

There is no update and no option to e-file it as well. Transmission failed

We transmitted quite a few today - proablaby half rejected... will deal with them after 3/15.

It shouldn't be this difficult. And I should NOT have to resort to manually filing these **bleep** returns on the state's website when the software I pay $20K+ per year for is supposed to do them.

The update menu says 3/22/2024.

Why does an employee say it is live today.

It isn't and there is no update available.
