e-file failures
For two years now, I am very disappointed in e-file. 2024 Tax return rejected once received by the IRS, due to "signature verification failure" and 2025 for "additional required documentation failure" due to my overtime exemption. NEITHER TIME did e-file contact me about problems in either case, and both times, I had to find out from the IRS. I will never use this site again.

I am very sorry for the trouble with this. What you have described here are notices from the IRS after they have already accepted and acknowledged the returns. In 2024 it sounds like the IRS sent you a letter requesting you to verify your identity before your refund could be released. In 2025 it sounds like the IRS sent you a letter requesting documentation relating to the new overtime deduction. The IRS sometimes requests this sort of verification information to help prevent against fraud and/or overpayment. When they do this, they do not include the tax software provider in the communication (no matter where the return is prepared or transmitted). Once the tax return has been filed and acknowledged, no further information is provided to the software provider. It would only be directed to the taxpayer.
