Try clicking on the banner/ message at the top of the forum. The one about e-file start & stop dates.... 😉

Intuit doesn't shut it down; the IRS does.

I cannot efile. Why did Proseries shut down early, before the IRS?

The Intuit Electronic Filing Center will stop accepting e-file transmissions shortly before the IRS shutdown to help ensure that all sent returns are received by the agency.

Looks like they closed today.

Insanity... I've been checking the IRS MeF status page constantly the past few weeks leading up to the 26th shutdown. I had no idea I should have been preparing for intuit's cutoff four days ahead of the IRS shutdown. Suggestion to intuit for next year: send an email with the subject line "NOTICE OF INTUIT E-FILE SHUTDOWN PRIOR TO IRS MEF SHUTDOWN ON [month - day]". You can do that using some of the budget you use to send my staff and I job offers.

Good to know: Prosystem fx is still processing returns.

I tried e-filing a 1040x last night and it was rejected. I thought the IRS shutdown was 12/26/25 at 11:59 AM. I called Lacerte but the support office is closed.

That is the IRS shutdown time. Intuit shut down earlier as noted above.
