IND-031-04 - The primary taxpayer's AGI or Self-select PIN from last year does not match IRS records.
    Best answer by DoninGA

    You have to enter the 2017 AGI as shown on the 2017 tax return -

    Form 1040 – Line 37
    Form 1040A – Line 21
    Form 1040EZ – Line 4

     

    If you filed a 2017 late in 2018 or you did not file a 2017 tax return, then enter a 0 (zero) for the 2017 AGI and e-file again.  If the IRS rejects the tax return again then you will need to print and mail the tax return.

    See this TurboTax support FAQ for the procedure to print a tax return for mailing when using the online editions - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/printing/help/how-do-i-print-and-mail-my-return-in-turbotax-online/01/26258

     

    If you have taxes owed on the 2018 return then include a copy of the first rejection email you received when mailing the federal tax return so that you will not be penalized for filing after the due date if you filed an extension request.

     If you didn't file a 2018 federal tax return (or you haven't filed one yet), enter 0 as your AGI. Please see this TurboTax FAQ for more information: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/agi/help/how-do-i-find-last-year-s-agi/00/25947.

    Be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

    The 2018 AGI is on the 2018 Federal tax return you filed on Line 7

     

    https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/agi/help/how-do-i-find-last-year-s-agi/01/25947

     

    To access your current or prior year tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

    Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on View adjusted gross income (AGI)

     

    Or go to this IRS website for free federal tax return transcripts - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

     

    If your tax return continues to be rejected with the 2018 AGI then enter a 0 (zero) for the AGI and e-file again.

    If this is also rejected then you will have to print and mail the tax return.

    I entered the right one and it's still the same thing. I added up both of you AgI from 2018 and that should be the AGI

    What did you add up?  You do not add anything.  The AGI is not on your W2s.  The AGI is only the amount on your 2018 return line 7.

     

    You need your 2018 AGI to efile 2019. The AGI is on 2018 1040 line 7. If you filed a Joint return you use the same AGI for each spouse.
