"I'm concerned about a possible rejection e-filing my return. When preparing this years return I imported relevant information from last years return after which I discovered that the return info was not part of the actual return filed. So I ended up w/ an incorrect AGI that was imported. I've corrected it, but I'm concerned it will rejected when filed because of any possible confusion of what AGI will be recognized as accurate. The one officially filed or the one imported that is incorrect?"
That's a bit confusing above, but it sounds like you are saying that you transferred 2018 information from an incomplete, unfiled 2018 return from last year into your 2019 return, instead of the final 2018 return with the true 2018 AGI you actually filed last year. Is that correct?
If that's the case, the IRS will use whatever 2018 AGI you actually ultimately submit in your efiled 2019 return. If you corrected the 2018 AGI prior to efiling, then the corrected AGI is the only 2018 AGI that gets sent.
NOTE: As TurboTax CatinaT1 mentioned above, if you filed the 2018 return real late in the year (such as mid-November or later), you would use an AGI of 0. See the rest of her list above.
If you indeed transferred your data from the wrong or incomplete 2018 tax file when you started this year, then it's possible that other additional incomplete info from 2018 transferred into your return. So, hopefully, you checked through the entire return prior to filing to be sure nothing else was wrong that might have come in from 2018, and either edited, updated, or removed it.
If you need further help, please provide additional information. And please specify if you are referring to a personal income tax return or a business return (corporations, S-corp, partnerships, etc.). And are you using Online TurboTax or desktop software (CD/download)?
