My e-file was rejected as my wife's AGI did not match (IND-032-04 - 'SpousePriorYearPIN' or 'SpousePriorYearAGIAmt' in the Return Header must match the e-File database).
I electronically filed jointly last year for the 2016 return, and I see the correct AGI amount (of the 2016 file) while doing this year through Turbotax. My wife did not have income last year, but I think she has the same AGI as we filed jointly. I think one main difference between last and this years is that she used her SSN whereas she had used her ITIN. Another difference is that she had income as a graduate student this year.
Is this rejection because we entered her SSN this year? She sent a letter a month ago to the IRS office in Austin, TX to update her information, so the IRS can consolidate her record to her SSN, not ITIN. Or is it because she had income income in 2017 whereas she did not in 2016? Or do I have to enter 0 for her last year's AGI? Thank you.
