THE PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN ADMINISTRATIVE MESSAGE NUMBER 04-2114, DATED
TODAY, 09/30/2004, HAS BEEN PARTIALLY FIXED. ACH DEBIT PAYMENT
AUTHORIZATION APPLICATION (QN) TRANSACTIONS THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY
REJECTED WITH ERROR RESPONSE MESSAGE NUMBER Q23 'DUPLICATE QT PAYMENT
RECORD', CAN NOW BE RETRANSMITTED AND WILL BE ACCEPTED. BUT, FOR
THOSE STATEMENTS WHOSE ACH DEBIT PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION WAS REJECTED,
THIS EVENING'S END-OF-DAY PROCESS WILL NOT APPLY THE COLLECTIONS TO
THE INDIVIDUAL ENTRY SUMMARIES, NOR WILL FINAL STATEMENTS BE GENERATED
FOR RETRIEVAL TOMORROW. WE ANTICIPATE THAT THOSE TASKS WILL BE
COMPLETED DURING END-OF-DAY PROCESSING TOMORROW. IT IS ALSO LIKELY
THAT FINAL STATEMENTS WILL NOT BE GENERATED FOR STATEMENTS PAID
VIA AN ACH CREDIT TRANSACTION INITIATED TODAY.
AS A RESULT, CBP HAS DETERMINED THAT THESE CIRCUMSTANCES WARRANT
GRANTING A NATIONAL SNOW DAY TO ALL FILERS AND, UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS
COMPLETELY RESOLVED, ADDITIONAL DAYS WILL BE EXTENDED WITHOUT PENALTY
FOR ANY LATE FILED ENTRIES OR PAYMENTS THAT WERE DUE ON SEPTEMBER 30.
