Yeah, there was some kind of error in which the IRS e-file system was closed despite the 10/20 for rejected returns and 10/31 for in-progress returns. This was just resolved for Federal but not for California. I was told to file by mail instead i.e. "sucks to be you".
Which is hilarious because if you print out the file-by-mail forms, they say right there "You still have time to file electronically". Charming.
