View whether your forms were accepted or need action directly in eFileMyForms.
After you submit files to the IRS, the IRS's system assigns each file a status that helps you track its progress. The IRS uses several statuses to indicate where your file is in their validation process.

- Find your order and check the Status column.
The status tells you whether the IRS accepted your submission and whether any action is needed.
- Accepted
- The IRS accepted your submission. No action needed.
- Accepted with Errors
- The IRS accepted your submission, but some records have errors you may need to correct. Review the errors and, if needed, create correction forms and place a new order.
- Rejected
- The IRS rejected your submission. Fix the errors and resubmit.
- Accepted with errors
- The IRS accepted your submission but found some errors. Try to fix as many errors as possible. Review the error details from step 2, correct what you can, and resubmit them as corrections. Before resubmitting, save the receipt ID because you'll need it when you submit the corrections.
- Rejected (before receiving a receipt ID from the IRS)
- This is usually caused by formatting issues, such as special characters in records. Review the error details from step 3, fix the records, then resubmit the forms.
- Rejected or Partially Rejected (after receiving a receipt ID from the IRS)
- Review the error details from step 3, correct the records, then resubmit them within 60 days of the original submission date. Before resubmitting, save the receipt ID because you'll need it when you submit the replacements.
