Per the IRS: See last two items. The IRS will not accept a new tax return after Oct 15 and re-transmitted rejected returns by Oct 20.

While those are the deadlines for timely filing, that is not when the system actually shuts down.

Question

I don't owe taxes. Can I file electronically after April 15?

Answer

Yes, electronically filed tax returns are accepted until November. The specific cutoff date in November is announced in October in the QuickAlerts Library.

In the past, Turbotax stopped accepting returns after October 15, but they seem to have extended it this year.
