It depends.

 

We will need a bit more information to assist you. 

 

Can you please comment and provide the rejection code message you are receiving?

 

In the meantime, attached is a link with more information on how to correct the most common rejection codes.

 

How to fix a rejected return

 

Many times, the error might have to do with entering your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) from 2018.  Please see the following for instructions on getting your 2018 Adjusted Gross Income (AGI).

Be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

it is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it like UPS or certified mail.  Then you will know the IRS received it.

 

 

If you used the wrong AGI, your e-file  be rejected.  When you get the rejection notice, correct it and re-file.

The 2018 AGI is on the 2018 Federal tax return you filed Form 1040 Line 7

To access your current or prior year tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on View adjusted gross income (AGI)

 

Or go to this IRS website for free federal tax return transcripts - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

 

If your tax return continues to be rejected with the 2018 AGI then enter a 0 (zero) for the AGI and e-file again.

If this is also rejected then you will have to print and mail the tax return.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for printing a tax return for mailing - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/printing/help/how-do-i-print-and-mail-my-return-in-turbotax-online...

Why am I keep getting reject ?

@Allinmoeporter37

You received an email that we cannot see that tells you why your tax return was rejected.  

Some rejected returns can be fixed and re-filed.  Some have “un-fixable” reasons for the rejection and have to be mailed instead. What is the rejection code or rejection message? 

 If it was rejected for AGI—-be aware that many 2020 returns took so long for the IRS to process that your 2020 AGI might not be in the IRS system.   Try using zero instead.

 

If filing with zero is rejected then file again but select the option that you did not file last year.  The IRS does not see that question and it will allow you to e-file with no AGI question.

If that does not work and you still cannot e-file, then print, sign, and mail your tax return.

When a rejection is received, it means that the IRS or state has sent the return back for a correction to be made.  The rejection is often as simple as a mistyped number that does not match the IRS or state records.  

 

If your IRS and State returns were rejected, a rejection code would be provided.  Since we do not have access to your return, we will need to have the rejection code provided to assist.  

 

Here is a link to help you locate where the rejection code would be; How do I fix a rejected return?
