990s Rejected

R0000-004-01 e-file error. ReturnTypeCd (specified in the Return Header) and the return version (specified by the returnVersion attribute of the Return element) of the return must match the return type and the version supported by the Modernized e-File system.

Might need to call tech support on this one, is its an IRS problem or an Intuit problem?  Im not sure.

I had the same thing on an 8-31 year end (Due Yesterday). I kept checking and got the same (I think) rejection, so opened the file, ran error checking again, saved and resent.

Then I took the Extension that was on my desk, and went to the PO and mailed, certified, return receipt requested. (I know you are supposed to be ok if you have to fix something on a reject, but it is easier not to take chances.)

As of this morning the return is still sitting in "Sent to IRS Status" but with the extension if there is a systemic problem that takes a while to get fixed, I don't have to worry (as much).

Update:  Problem was indeed on the IRS side of things and not ProSeries.  The resubmitted returns were accepted.

Thanks for all comments -- very helpful.
