Import Error - Accountant Changes

I am currently using QuickBooks Desktop Pro 2020. My accountant sent her accountant changes file via a secure link as a QBJ file. I saved locally to my computer and tried to import. Once in QB and trying to import, the saved QBJ file is not visible (although, it is visible if looking from File Explorer). Furthermore, once I get the accountant's general journal entries pulled up in QB and select "add GEJs", I get a Warning message that reads: Warning Import Failed: Please try again later. 

 

Any suggestions? I have never ran into this issue before. 

 

Thanks

Is this your first time to import a QBJ file? Try running the Verify/Rebuild Data utility. Any error message?

I cant say for sure if this is the first time - last year it appears that the changes were sent as a QBY file. I did run the verify/rebuild data feature and no error messages appeared.

I can't say for sure if it is the first time - last year the accountant changes were sent via QBY file. I did run that feature and no errors came up.
