QMid

TT responds with an "invalid entry" message when I enter the 4 digit QMid for a furnace and AC provided by Trane. I've tried a few different QMids.

The IRS has implemented strict requirements for the Four-character Qualified Manufacturer Identification Number (QMID), and their systems currently do not accept letters 'I' or 'O' in these codes.

Major manufacturers like Daikin, Goodman, and Amana have been linked to the QMID I7Q6. Because this code starts with 'I', it causes an automatic rejection by the IRS e-file system, even if the manufacturer provided it.

Please wait until after Feb 13 to try again as the IRS implements these changes.

You can workaround this issue by filing by mail, or wait until the IRS is ready to accept these by e-file.
