15th Rejects

[Super Mom]

If I have a return filed on the 15th and rejected, how long do I have to refile?

[Super Mom]

They owe money, mailed a paper check in time to be postmarked by april 15

I dont see an issue

If they mailed in the balance they owed and it was postmarked on or before Apr 15, 2013, I wouldn't get to concerned but to be safe, I would print a copy of that reject, scan and retain it in case the IRS penalizes them or you can go ahead and mail a copy to the IRS.

TTB, page 15-12 says:

Rejected returns. If an electronically filed return is rejected by
the IRS, the ERO must take reasonable steps to notify the taxpayer
within 24 hours. The ERO must provide the taxpayer with
the reject codes accompanied by an explanation. If the taxpayer
chooses to file a paper return, or if the electronic return cannot
be accepted for processing by the IRS, a paper return must be
filed. In order to be considered timely filed, the paper return must
be filed by the later of the due date of the return or 10 calendar
days after the date the IRS gives notification that the electronic
portion of the return is rejected.
