    IND-901 The Primary SSN in the Return Header has been locked because Social Security Administration records indicate the number belongs to a deceased individual

     

    the problem could be at the IRS end, you'll need to paper file.

    If your Social Security number is accurate, it's possible that your number was used by somebody else to file a tax return.

     

    At this point, you will need to mail your tax return in to file you.

     

    I also recommend you use the following link to contact the IRS about the potential fraudulent use of your Social Security number so additional safeguards can be put into place to protect you in the future.
