Need help: SpousePriorYearAGIAmt, mistakenly input 0 and accepted, how to fix it?

Hi guys,

When I tried to e-file Federal I got IND-032-04 - 'SpousePriorYearPIN' or 'SpousePriorYearAGIAmt' in the Return Header must match the e-File database. And I mistakenly input 0 for my wife, I did research and found it should be the same number as me if we file jointly last year. I got an email saying Federal was accepted already, what should I do now to fix it.

If the federal return was accepted for processing by the IRS then you have nothing to fix.

Any way to amend it?

Did I not see the question correctly ?    If the return was rejected then when you log in there should be an option to fix the return ... complete the FILE tab again to make the correction.  Otherwise scroll down and click on ADD A STATE to let you back in then complete the FILE tab again.

Thanks.

It shows accepted. So currently I have nothing to do with it, right? I have to wait for the amend option to appear and fix it?

There is nothing to fix and you do not need to amend the tax return.  The 2020 AGI is Only used when e-filing a tax return.  It is the electronic signature on the return.

Oh, really appreciate it.
