    1. Can’t verify after successful validation. Upon successful validation when I click on ‘Proceed to verification’ it does not do anything. Tried multiple times. Stuck! 🙁

        1. Original acknowledgement number is not getting validated in revised return.
          When I file the revised return it says “Invalid receipt number. Please retry and enter correct acknowledgement number.” Tried multiple times with different utilities to generate the JSON file.

    2. Hi guys, Facing issue while filling ITR 5 excel utility received an error not saying “invalid hash value identified modification to itr details outside utility is not allowed”….if anybody has a solution for the same.

    3. I am getting below error when trying to submit ITR:
      [#/ITR/ITR1/TaxPayments/TaxPayment/0/DateDep: string [NaN-NaN-NaN] does not match pattern ([12]\d{3}-(0[1-9]|1[0-2])-(0[1-9]|[12]\d|3[01]))];#;Please contact the developer of your utility with the error key

      It seems the date of deposit for advance tax payment is not being picked correctly. Has anyone else faced this and how to rectify this?

        1. By any chance are you guys facing this issue in MacOS or safari browser?
          I think it is happening because in “Tax Paid” section, for self Tax Payment – Date of deposit should be DD-MM-YYY, example 29-07-2022; But it seems to be taking in DD-MONTH-YYYY format, which is 29-Jul-2022 and the same is not able to verify at last step.
          Try it in a different browser/OS and see if it fixes the problem.

      1. Any Luck? with the error, Even I am unable to submit

        [#/ITR/ITR1/TaxPayments/TaxPayment/0/DateDep: string [NaN-NaN-NaN] does not match pattern ([12]\d{3}-(0[1-9]|1[0-2])-(0[1-9]|[12]\d|3[01]))];#;Please contact the developer of your utility with the error key

      2. Try using different browser, the issue mostly happening in Safari, Firefox & Opera.
        Best browsers – Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge.

      3. Yes, I am also facing similar error during e-verify and it seems this is only to the tax payers who have paid the selft assessment tax. This is rediculous that Infosys couldn’t do the test of system well. IT systems are never smooth like before but such software glitches are just not acceptable before being released to general public and critical stakeholders are more in nature.

      4. I am getting same error

        after paying the additional demand using ” Pay Now”.
        then the details of receipts are entered in “Tax Paid …. Advance tax and Self assessment ” option.
        At the time of submit this error appear.I think the date field is having an issue here. I could not resolve yet.

      5. I faced same problem but after multiple tries on Mac Safari, I logged in at google chrome and finally succeed to file. Try this, may work.

      6. I was facing the same issue. Changed the browser from safari to chrome to login into my account and it got resolved.

      7. It’s SAFARI. Pls use CHROME / FIREFOX or some other browser.

        If you cross checked your info for any copy paste errors then browser is the culprit!

      8. Hi Rajat, I was also facing the same issue yesterday, however when I tried today it worked but its too late for me now. I have to pay the delay fee now. is it sorted for you now?

      1. Even I too getting same message, when we check IT Call center they asked to send a detail mail to helpdesk, so far no reply….

    4. After getting the ITR 2 validated with no errors, at the time of proceeding to verification, the following message appears.
      POST foitrvalidations2223medservice.iec.svc.cluster.local:8381/itrintval2223/api/1.0.0 HTTP/1.
      What is the meaning of this message and how to sort it out.

          1. Which all fields did you find had bad characters? I checked but am not able to find. Would be helpful to know please.

            1. Guys, finally solved the issue. In some of the data that is prefilled there is an illegal character. So search each and every field that has been prefilled.

            2. Struggled with same problem for 3 days. There was a special spanish character “ó” in one of the addresses in Schedule FSI which was causing the error. Replaced it with normal alphabet “o”. So check if there is any é or ó etc anywhere and replace it.

      1. Hi,

        I had faced the same error but was able to resolve it. You have to walk through each field and check if there are any foreign characters ( In my case, I had copied the address which had a german letter in between). I removed it and this worked. So make sure all the fields, especially copied and auto-filled ones are right, character by character
        Also, you can reach out to “orm@cpc.incometax.gov.in” for any help, they actually called us back for help and if required they would do web conferencing as well.

      2. Issue:
        After successful validation of ITR 2, there was an error for Process for Validation as “POST foitrvalidations2223medservice.iec.svc.cluster.local:8381/itrintval2223/api/1.0.0 HTTP/1.”

        Solution: In my ITR 2 form, in one of the schedules I had a foreign address as “… République” which is a French word and has special char as ” é ” due to which the error was generated. So, I just replaced ” é ” with English ” e ” or République with “Republique” and then followed the same steps for verification and there was no error. I hope this will help you. Good luck!
