Posted returns aren't considered accepted returns

When the DOL processes a return, the DOL indicates that the return is "accepted," even if the return contains errors. In this instance, the electronic file for the benefit plan will show a rejection in UltraTax CS. If a return is "accepted" but contains errors, the tax preparer should review and file a corrected return.
If the filing status on the DOL website is “Filing_Received,” “Filing_Error,” or “Processing_Stopped,” the annual return/report is considered received. After the return is received by the EFAST2 system, filings may be subject to further detailed review by the DOL, IRS, and/or PBGC. Filings with a status of “Filing_Error” or Processing_Stopped” need to be corrected by filing an amended return.
If the return is retransmitted, Thomson Reuters will transmit the return as an amended return.
