Hi, my tax return got rejected for the wrong AGI, but I also forgot to put in an extra W2, how can I put that in? Or does it have to be accepted and amended to add it?

[obangster]

Can I edit and add the extra W2? Or do I have to add the correct AGI and get it accepted first and amend to add the W2?

You can, and should, add the missing W-2 before you resubmit your tax return with the correct AGI.

[bluedeb · Accepted solution]

Since your return was rejected, you can add your W-2, correct your 2019 AGI & then re-e-file.

How do I add the W-2?

How do I add the w-2

[obangster]

Can I add it online or do I now have to file by mail?

[obangster]

So I had two jobs in 2019 and got 2 separate w-2’s do I add the 2 separate AGI’s to get the total AGI ?

@obangster 

You can add the W-2 online. You can still e-file. See the following FAQ for instructions.

Where do I add or enter a second W-2?

Your 2019 AGI is not on your W-2s. It's on your 2019 tax return, on Form 1040 line 8b. See the following FAQ for more information about how to find your 2019 AGI.

How do I find last year’s AGI?

@rjs also the app says my AGI which I put on the return but it says it’s wrong? 

[obangster]

@rjs so before i added a 1099g form I was supposed to get around 1200$ total, after I added the 1099g, I’m supposed to get around 500$ in federal and owe 300$ in state taxes, does that sound correct?

[rjs]

It's impossible to tell whether those figures are correct without being able to see your tax return.

Form 1099-G is used for a lot of different kinds of payments. Is the 1099-G for unemployment? If so, it sounds like you didn't have enough tax withheld from your unemployment, or maybe you didn't have any tax withheld at all. If that's the case, the reduction of your refunds could very well be correct.

What state are you in? Unemployment benefits are taxable in most states, but there are a few states that do not tax unemployment.
