If you, your spouse or any child listed on the Schedule EIC has a missing SSN or the name and SSN does not match the records from the Social Security Administration, IRS may reject an electronic return or send a math error notice.
You should verify the questioned SSNs.
- If the SSN submitted on the original return was incorrect, submit a new return or respond to the math error notice with the correct SSN.
- If the SSN is correct, contact the Social Security Administration to correct any SSN and name mismatch. After SSA corrects the records, either send in a new return or respond to the math error notice.
