Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you have verified your AGI as being correct here are  few possible other reasons why you’re still getting an e-file reject. 

 

If you:

  • Filed late last year after mid-November or your return was processed after that time—try entering 0. 

  • Amended your return last year—make sure you’re using the AGI from your original return, not the amended one. (If you only have a 1040X form, it’s on line 1, column A). 

  • Rounded your AGI to the nearest dollar—be sure to round up when it’s 50 cents or more and down when it’s 49 cents or less. 

  • Filed with your spouse last year—you and your spouse have the same 2018 AGI. (Don’t split the AGI amount or enter 0 for one of you). 

If you still are unable to e-file then you should consider filing by mail.  Returns that are rejected for AGI issues when e-filed generally will be accepted when mailed.
