Subject:  Status of Acknowledgements for Federal and State Submissions


Due to the significant increase in federal and state submissions transmitted on April 15th, the length of time to create federal acknowledgments and make them available for retrieval is taking longer than expected. The IRS is closely monitoring the acknowledgment rates and is working to close the gap as a top priority.

The majority of state returns are linked to the acceptance of the federal return, so the length of time it takes to make the state return available for state retrieval has also increased. As the federal backlog decreases, the state submissions will then be ready for state pickup.

In the interim, please do not retransmit any submissions awaiting acknowledgment if the IRS has issued a receipt.

We thank you again for your patience and support.
