One of the five was rejected, and was paper filed. does this still count as the five?

Sorry, but 5 efiles is an IRS limit.  The rest must be filed by mail.

I know this is an old thread but I'll take a chance that it is still being monitored.

 

Like the OP I might very well need to do more that 5 filings this year and would like to do them all electronically.  You say that 5 is an IRS limit but 5 per what?  A single address?  A single copy of TT?  A single license of TT?  How would the IRS even know about the latter 2?

 

I'll be happy to buy additional copies of TT if that's the only way to do more than 5 e-filings but I don't want to waste my time and money if the limit is enforced of something that would still be in effect no matter how many licenses I purchase.

 

What, exactly, is the limit of e-filings enforced against?

 

Thanks in advance,

Howard

I suspect it's a single copy of TT...... Load the software onto a 2nd Computer should work 

 

you can always snail mail additional copies.....

Do you mean (1) 2020 taxes for 7 different people, (2) One person who has 1 Federal and 6 state returns, or (3) 7 different tax years?
