So, is the final answer for those of us filing in the year our spouse died that we cannot e-file our returns?
For now, apparently not. If this is identified as a bug, it might get fixed, but you might wait longer for the fix than the extra wait of mailing a return. And even if this is a bug this year, there will be some cases where the spouse's SSN is locked out, because that has been happening for many years.
