It returns efiling in "transferred to ao" status for long

1. Yes.

2. Not mandatory, unless any query raised.

3. Wait & watch, its manual process, takes its own time.

Myself also experiencing the same case as my returns also "Transferred to AO" since July 2016.

But I personally met the AO and submitted all the required supporting documents (via ASK) long back to process further. But AO office is keep on updating me that some technical difficulty at their end as they do not have required permission to process my returns. I called CPC helpdesk multiple time but they have updated me that they can’t help here as it’s transferred to local AO for processing.

I’m still waiting for an update and continuously following up with AO to process my returns as the technical issue is not fixed for more than a year. I am not sure the real difficulty behind the issue and why this is taking very long time as no futher action required from my end.

Could you please help me to know the next steps of action in such cases and the specific reason for such issue?

	Hi All, My ITR efiling status is "Transferred to AO" since July 2016 for last Assessment Year.During that AY i had a part of my income from abroad and efiled the same while filing returns.Is that the reason for my case to go to "Transferred to AO" status to tally foreign tax credits? Is there anything that i need to do from my end to get my ITR processed? I am currently out of country and will not be able to go to Income Tax office.   Thanks&Regards ShivaKumar
