How to correct my rejected EIN number on my Turbo tax
If your return is rejected due to the EIN, go back to where it was originally entered and check that the form is entered exactly as received. For more information, see: E-file reject FW2-502: The name or EIN for an employer on your W-2 doesn't match IRS records.
Please read the explanation carefully for why the return was rejected and log back in to your program. TurboTax will help fix it. See: How do I fix a rejected return?
