When I file the 1099 for efile and go through all the steps it tries to transmit and then says " Something went wrong. Try again later"...Has anyone had this issue?

Hello there, @susan172.

I'd like to provide some information as to why you're receiving the message to try again later when e-filing your 1099 in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

Currently, there is an investigation into users receiving the message "Something went wrong. Please try again later." when trying to e-file. Rest assured, our product engineers are diligently working to find a permanent fix for this issue. While I can't provide a specific time frame for when the issue will be resolved, I recommend contacting our Customer Care Team to be added to the affected users list. This way, you'll receive an email notification once an update is available.
