This is also a feature Drake provides.  I thought this was an industry standard after having it since e-filing has been available but now I know it is not an industry standard because Lacerte does not provide.  This feature would save us time and improve our customer service with our customers.  Now that our customers no longer receive this email communication, it has created a lot of confusion with our customers and we spend a lot of extra time manually reporting to them that their returns have been accepted.  Since all my other tax preparation service providers have had this ability, it must be possible to program.
