do i owe turbo tax if my taxes dont get accepted?

Yes.....because if your return is rejected, you can fix it and re-file or you can print it, sign it and mail it.  The fee is the same whether you e-file or file by mail.

 

 

You received an email that we cannot see that tells you why your tax return was rejected.  

Some rejected returns can be fixed and re-filed.  Some have “un-fixable” reasons for the rejection and have to be mailed instead.

 

 What is the rejection code or rejection message? 

 

 If it was rejected for AGI—-your 2024 AGI might not be in the IRS system if you filed late.   Try using zero instead.

 

If filing with zero is rejected then file again but select the option that you did not file last year.  The IRS does not see that question and it will allow you to e-file with no AGI question.

If that does not work and you still cannot e-file, then print, sign, and mail your tax return.

If you used TurboTax Online, yes, the fee is for preparing your tax return, not successfully e-filing it.  In rare situations, you may need to file by mail.   If your tax return get rejected, you will be able to make the necessary corrections and resubmit it.
