ACKS - The latest...

[Jack from Ohio]

Updated 4-16-2014 at 7pm

Acks are still coming in slowly; at last check, we had approximately 150,000 outstanding IRS acks.

IRS is still well within their published ack processing times; we continue to access their site every few minutes to pull down available acks.

State acks will also be delayed, possibly even until Friday or Monday.

Also be aware that you could see acks processed out of order and this is to be expected. You could see state acks before federal acks. You could see acks for returns sent later in the day BEFORE you receive acks for returns sent earlier in the day.

NOTE: Use the Efile Status tool on the Solution Center to view real-time status of particular returns.

Efiles sent by the midnight deadline April 15th were sent timely to the agencies.

Please be patient as the agencies struggle to deliver acks for this enormous last day volume.

Two-thirds of the federal acks for returns sent April 15th have been received and delivered to the EROs.

The remaining one-third of our federal acks will be delivered throughout the day today and possibly even tomorrow. IRS is still well within their published ack processing times; we continue to access their site every few minutes to pull down available acks.

State acks will also be delayed, possibly even until Friday or Monday.
