E File Rejection Error - Has anyone seen this type of error?

[ETax847]

Hi, I'm trying to file an Ohio State Tax Return for a client and keep receiving the following E-File Rejection Error:

"The XML dat has failed schema validation."

Has anyone else seen this type of error, before and if so, do you know of the solution?

The client's Federal Return and Indiana return were both previously accepted with no issues.

In my previous experience with ATX that usually means that one of the ATX state forms in your client's tax return does not meet the state specifications.

Go back and reload forms for this client than recreate the efile and resubmit.

As answered to your FB post (I guess it was you), here is a link to several KB answers.  See if one applies to you:
