Tax filing work becomes harder when a status arrives after the useful moment to act.
Completeness and timeliness pull together, but source schedules rarely do.
Who you’d be doing this for
“If something is stuck, I need time to respond before it becomes a notice.”

What is at stake
Only 68% of filing-status records arrive within two hours of source availability. You have to weigh faster availability against complete, defensible tax-status data.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- data freshness vs filing completeness
- source variability vs predictable operations
- faster signals vs audit-ready lineage
