Due to multiple outages over the last couple of weeks, we feel it’s necessary to provide an update about E-Filing. 

The main issue that we are dealing with is very large filings getting stuck while processing. While e-filers are required to keep their individual documents under 20 MB, there is no limit to the combined size of all your documents in a single e-filing. Recently, when the combined file size of all your documents exceeds 70 MB in a single filing, it causes the system to fail for all users. Because of this, we ask a favor from you. Please, if you are going to submit a filing where all the documents add up to more than 60 MB, please submit the documents in two separate filings.

Resolved as of 8:05AM. If you received an error notification you may now resubmit your filing.
