Feds reject return - says W2G EIN is wrong (not recognized).
Have submitted e-file, and both times Feds reject saying the EIN on my W2G (gambling winnings) filings is not recognized. Double/triple checked and all entries correct (exact match in Turbo Tax forms to what's on paper). Took to my casino, and they confirmed EIN correct (same as last year and year before, etc.); and they confirm on my Turbo tax form printout I entered correctly - both name and EIN. Their accountant on duty said that he had two other customers who also used Turbo Tax say their returns (efile through TurboTax) were rejected by Feds. Accountant says that the only folks getting rejection (to his knowledge) are TurboTax e-filers / and that others have successfully e-filed. Any solution other than to print and manually file? Will Intuit investigate and correct their software? I've used Turbo Tax for 10+ years and have been very happy - this is first problem I've ever run across.
