Abstract
An electronic filing system may electronically file a tax return created by a user using a tax preparation application. The electronic filing system may receive an error indication from a taxing authority identifying a specific tax return error. The electronic filing system may create an error notification including an error description, error solution, and mechanism for correcting the error. The electronic filing system may send the error notification to a device associated with the user. The device may not be the same device in which the tax preparation application created the tax return. The mechanism may enable the user to correct the error without the tax preparation application. The electronic filing system may receive an error correction sent from the user's device according to the mechanism of the error notification. The electronic filing system may correct an error of the tax return according to the error correction.
