Get your taxes done using TurboTax

To answer your question: Yes - we filed as married filing jointly in 2018.  Maybe the problem is, my husband passed away in February 2019 and he is still the primary taxpayer.  I am now trying to file again as married filing jointly but as a surviving spouse.  The return is rejected because they can't confirm my deceased husband's identity even though I gave the IRS his PIN and AGI for 2018.  Turbo Tax asked if I filed in 2018 and I said yes and gave them the same AGI as my husband. It was rejected. I resubmitted the return removing my information (even though the return included my PIN entered by Turbo Tax automatically) and it was rejected again.  Am I making a mistake somewhere or is there a glich in the E-filing process?
