According to this IRS website, it has to do with PDF attachments.

 

#3. PDF attachments and the Binary Attachment XML file

When including a Binary Attachment in a MeF return, the name of the PDF must match the Attachment Location in the XML file that references the PDF (the BinaryAttachment file). Otherwise, the return will reject.

For example, Business Rules R0000-057, R0000-058 and R0000-062 will reject the return when:

  • the PDF is named “ExampleTrust.PDF” and
  • the value of the AttachmentLocation element in the BinaryAttachment XML is “ExamplesTrust.PDF”


To clear the business rule rejects in the example above, either:

  • Change the name of the PDF to “ExamplesTrust.PDF” (add an “s” after Example), or
  • Change the data in the Attachment Location element of the Binary Attachment XML to “ExampleTrust.PDF” (remove the “s” after Example)
