The HQR team has confirmed this is a defect on their end. Fix to this will be applied in the coming weeks.

Hi Jeff,

Below is an update from the HQR team from their investigation so far, we will keep you posted with the findings.

–

For QRDA_10522840.xml (CMS_0071 error), we are seeing that it is failing our well formed check with the following error.

[Fatal Error] :1:1: Content is not allowed in prolog.

–

The latest update is that there were hidden characters at the beginning for the XML file. Most likely due to UTF-8 with BOM. The team will continue to look into this.

Thanks for confirming. The file looks fine, we will reach out to the HQR team and have them look into this from their end.

Yes I did another 2 test submissions today and still get the error on every file in the zip.

Hi Jeff,

Do you still see the CMS_0071 error when you try re-submit today?

Thanks
