I filed MFS and he put single on her 1040. Is that why hers was rejected. Should she just change it to MFS, and re send it?
This question concerns me. If the "CPA" was using professional software, there would be no way for "she" (the client) to change and re-file a tax return by herself. Only the CPA could re-file the return.
A CPA can not legally use Turbotax. Turbotax is individual/consumer/non-professional software. Among other things, Turbotax has no place for a paid tax preparer to include their paid preparer ID number as required by law, and so a paid preparer who uses Turbotax is violating IRS regulations as well as the Turbotax terms of service.
If this is not a simple misunderstanding and your wife's tax person really is using Turbotax, your wife would be well advised to back away from this tax preparer and find someone more reputable.
