Drake Tax - EF Message 0001
Article #: 18363
Last Updated: July 22, 2025
This message is generated when one or more of the listed forms have not been finalized or implemented completely into the software. Once these forms are made available and fully implemented, a software update is released, and the message will be updated or cleared. You can review update notes to see what forms are released with each update, see Drake Tax - Reviewing Tax Software Updates for details.
Tip If a state form is still in development, then that state will produce its own EF message until the forms are finalized and the software is updated.
Watermarks may be generated when forms are still in development, but are eligible for e-filing.
