Submit ACA Forms to IRS: [MANIFEST-019] ChecksumAugmentationNum Error in Manifest File
[MANIFEST-019] Error: Manifest 'ChecksumAugmentationNum' must not match a 'ChecksumAugmentationNum' of any AIR transmission from the same 'TCC' previously accepted.
Possible Reasons:
#1: You uploaded a wrong manifest file that you submitted to IRS before.(*****)
#2: You modified a manifest file manually without updating the ChecksumAugmentationNum.
Solution
1. Create a new empty folder
2. Start ez1095, open one 1095 form (You can select anyone) and make a minor modification of the form
ie: change rd to RD, Apt to apt
So you will get a new checksum value when ez1095 generate the new XML files.
3. Generate XML files in the new folder.
You can edit the folder path in ez1095 efile screen
4. After you validate the XML files, upload the new XML files to IRS.
There are two file to be uploaded. Do not change the file names!
