Believe it or not, our Federal return was finally ACCEPTED earlier this afternoon!
I hope I'm explaining this right, because I've tried so many different things since last Friday it's hard to remember what happened which time! Anyway, I'll have to paraphrase here: First, I tried selecting the 'one or both of us did not file a 2020 return' option as you suggested, which prompted another drop-down menu. Then I selected the 'I filed but my spouse did not' option, then entered zero '0' in the AGI box on the next page. It was rejected, but this time with a different code (IND-031-04) which basically said that now my AGI didn't match the records. So, I went back in, entered our actual 2020 AGI, resubmitted and it was accepted. That was about 3 hours ago, and I still haven't received word that the State return was accepted, so we're not out of the woods yet - but this time I'm optimistic.
Thanks to you and all of the others who've responded to my dilemma!
