The IRS on Monday announced that it finished updating its processing systems and is now accepting all returns that include the 29 forms that were delayed by the late passage of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, P.L. 112-240.
On Sunday, the IRS began accepting from e-file transmitters returns with delayed forms that the transmitters had been holding. The IRS’s Modernized e-File team reviewed reject trends as returns were transmitted during the day on Sunday, and, based on the results, the IRS is now ready to accept all 2012 returns.
The IRS could not accept these forms when tax season opened because the forms needed extensive form and processing systems changes to reflect changes made by the American Taxpayer Relief Act.
