I'm trying to efile - important for financing reasons - and am having trouble getting accepted. First, i needed to enter my PIN (had identity theft issues in the past). I had that, so no problem. Second time, need to enter spouse's AGI, but what's entered is what's on the return (same as mine). One possibility is that it's the income from a Schedule C? Anybody familiar with this situation?
Tried entering 0 as others have mentioned. We'll see if this works....
If you filed a Joint return for 2017 then there is only one AGI. You enter the same AGI for each of you.
When did you file 2017? If it was after August try using 0 for the AGI. And see,
based on what you provided this shouldn't happen. assuming you filed timely and jointly for 2017, then entering the same agi for both of you is correct. you say entering $0 for both of you doesn't work. schedule C has nothing to do with the agi question (it's part of it). did you amend 2017 because you are supposed to use AGI as originally filed.
you can try contacting the IRS to see if they can( will) help. if that doesn't work out then your only choice is to paper file.
Entering zero did the trick. Third time was the Harland the return was accepted.
