After you file
Thanks . I could successfully refile my 2021 return .
I had multiple problems , I am explaining them here if that can help others who face similar issues.
1) My 2021 return got rejected at first attempt by FEDERAL for the reason "IND-181-01 - The Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN) for the first taxpayer on your return is missing". I could get my IP PIN from IRS website. Please note that IP PIN is different from Turbotax E-Filing PIN .
2) My ".tax2021" file (where TurboTax tax saves all information) got corrupted due to hard disk errors. I had a PDF copy of 2021 filing which was not able to loaded by Turbotax. So the only option was to recreate everything which I could do by spending some time.
3) Avoid repayment for STATE filing . This is where Turbotax support could help me . This ended up as very long time consuming activity. I had to call them twice, each time pass through the funny Interactive Voice Recognition (IVR) system, hear their music for long and reach to an an agent. Agents were really helpful but the second agent had some trouble to find the order unlocking key for me. Overall I spent around 3 hours to avoid repayment and to save $25 . If I knew this in advance I could have thought differently.
In the second attempt I added IP PIN as explained in the TurboTax documentation. This time both Federal & State returns got accepted:).
