1120 with payment due keeps getting rejected

[schirallicpa]

Form 7004 was filed.  It is a regular calander year C corp with payment due.  Have set up bank info for direct debit.  Have debit date set at 9-30-18.  Have checked that there are not dates in the fiscal date area at top of first page.  Have removed the 7004 and tried again.  Have deleted and re-entered info on the efile form.  I'm not sure exactly what the error means unless it is just not taking money with a return filed after original due date.  Have not tried to efile with paper check option.  

This is a corp that always goes on extension, and I have never had any problems with in the past.

Please advise.

Sounds like the problem is you are trying to push the payment date out beyond the day submitted.  From what I am seeing because it is past the original due date it will have to be paid at the same time they receive the return.

I, too, think this is the problem.  I was getting a similar error check message from Drake's program on an individual return where I'd entered a payment withdrawal date a few days after the filing date so there was no actual reject, but the issue sounds the same and the program would not allow the e-flie creation.  The only date acceptable was the same date as e-file submission.

hmmmm - so should I put the day that I am transmitting?  I had had it on the sept 15th when I transmitted on 13th and 14th and I was rejected with the same error on both of those tries.

Yes, definitely try that.

Try that. In my ProSystem fx, prior to the deadlines, I can give a future withdrawal date that is not later than the deadline. After the deadlines, I cannot. I forget whether I have to leave the withdrawal date field blank or put in the transmission date. Try both !!

it worked.  I put todays date and transmitted this morning.  it's accepted now.  Thank you!!!!
