Well first off I would just like to say thank you for replying. You helped me relax a little bit haha.
In regards to your first question, I used freefilefillableforms from the IRS website to do my tax return, and that is how I managed to make my tax returns identical and know that they are currently processing, and with the IRS tool.
And to your second question, I do not know why exactly my tax preparer did not wanted or suggested to E-file my tax return. Maybe because like you said, she is not authorized e-file provider, maybe she is old fashioned? But then again I don't know.
However, like you said I hopefully be won't get into any sort of trouble. Once the IRS opens back up I want to try and call them and let them know about this issue. But we won't know till when sadly but hopefully soon.
