After you file
You do have the option of filing by mail, but it may be worth time to see if you can fix it. The following will provide some guidance on the AGI for 2019.
Review the information below to see what you should use for your AGI.
- 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 2019 AGI. (Don’t split the AGI amount or enter 0 for one of you).
- Check this article: How do I get AGI if I don't have last year's return?
We suggest that you check with the IRS to make sure that the copy of your return is the same as what they have in their records. To do this, you can order a free IRS Transcript, of your past return from the IRS:
If you did get an action required email and you don't have the 'Fix my return' as described in the email you may need to contact support.
