Header-00040-011 e-file error

This error occurs when e-filing a Maryland 1120 return because the
Tax Year Ending Date
isn't set to the last day of the month.

Error message

Header-00040-011: Tax Year Ending Date - day (DD) must be last day of the month in which the tax year ends.

Solution

  1. Go to
    Organizer
    General Information
    Basic Return Information
    Entity Information
    Dates
    .
  2. Set the
    Fiscal Year Ending
    date to the last day of the month.
    note
    • Maryland's e-file system only accepts dates in this format, even if it doesn't match the Federal return.
    • If you can't change the date, paper file the return instead.
  3. Do a full recompute, then recreate the e-file.
note
Maryland only accepts e-filed returns for tax years that begin on the 1st day of a month and end on the last day of a month. Returns that don't meet these requirements must be paper filed.
