Forbidden

Apache HTTP Server AT example.com port 443
Does anyone happen to know what might be causing this?🤷

Brenda Gomez89 said:I really need some help here,
I just picked up a new PC running a 32-bit Windows 8 system, and I am hitting a massive wall with the IRS website. Everything works perfectly fine in Internet Explorer 10 right up until the moment I try to sign a form, and then I just get hit with an error saying the form isn't signed.
I’ve already tried installing Java 7.21 and then upgrading to Java 7.45, plus I have done a complete, clean reinstall of ActivClient multiple times now.
I can't even get the reader to load at all in Firefox.
Even when I actually manage to force the DLL to load in Firefox, things just break again—either Chrome tells me there is "no active reader" or Firefox claims "no certificate selected."
The IRS keeps insisting the issue is my certificate and telling me to call the Treasury, but I honestly don't buy it because this exact same card works flawlessly on my old Windows 7 machine using Java versions 7.45, 7.21, or 7.17. Now the Treasury is blaming the IRS application and Java, and they're just passing the buck back and forth.
Personally, I'm starting to think that their DLL just isn't compatible with Windows 8, or at least not fully.
Is anyone else actually getting the IRS site to work on Windows 8? Does anyone have a clue where I should even start looking for a fix?
Ethan Mitchell4 said:Now you're making me nervous. I just got a new laptop with Windows 8, and I know the developer had issues with the 64-bit version, so he switched things over to 32-bit. Honestly, I have no clue what I'm talking about—this whole thing is Greek to me. We tried logging into the Treasury and the IRS sites, and everything seemed fine, but I haven't actually tried signing anything yet.
It would be a huge relief if the payroll software doesn't crash on the 31st right before the deadline.

Does anyone know how you actually go about renewing one?
Brenda Gomez89 said:That error usually pops up when the reader—and by extension, the certificate itself—isn't being recognized by your browser. Which one are you using?
Brenda Gomez89 said:Which version of the ActiveX Control are you running on your Windows 8? And more importantly, can you actually get those forms signed successfully?
silverbadger said:You just fill out the application for the certificate issuance and then head over to the Department of the Treasury with your card in hand.
When I was renewing mine last time, the clerk mentioned that we could probably handle the renewal ourselves online by following the instructions on the Department of the Treasury website, but I honestly couldn't find those specific steps anywhere. So, I decided to just take a quick stroll over to see the lovely, polite, and super friendly staff at the local 😉
branch.
Carol Price4 said:Importing from outside the US... I've got my VAT calculated on the import, but when I try to plug it into field II.14, it throws an error—apparently saying it’s not allowed until the new regulations under Article 76 of the Value Added Tax Act kick in.
Does this mean imports from overseas are tracked strictly through customs—meaning we don't actually list the tax liability or the input credit on the VAT return at all???
Carol Price4;47650531 said:Ethan Mitchell4 said:I’m not at work right now, so I might be talking nonsense here, but I honestly think what you've got there belongs in section III.6.
Don't let it get to you. When I first started dealing with this stuff, it took me a few hours just to wrap my head around it. I couldn't figure out why we were paying such a massive amount of Value Added Tax at the end of every month compared to our old numbers—especially since import taxes usually just cancel each other out to zero, right? It took me forever to finally click.
