You said an AGI of 0 didn't work. I know you said this was your first time to file your return, but was any return filed in your name last year?   i.e., did your parents file a return for you in your name last year?

You may have had a 1099-R that transferred from last year. You can delete it by following the instructions below:   Open TurboTax Go to Income & Expenses Select Review/Edit Go to Form 1009-R Select Add/Edit Select the trash can next to the 1099-R that you want to delete  

You have to use your prior-year AGI to validate your identify, but as a first-time filer who is over 16, enter zero as your AGI.   Refer to the IRS Validating your electronically filed tax return for more information.

@thetryon2  It's not clear what all you are doing.   Are you using the USA TurboTax product to prepare a return?  If so, it can only prepare a USA return for US citizens and "resident aliens for tax purposes."   It cannot prepare a Canadian return.  Or do you need to prepare a USA return for the one month you lived here?   What is your citizenship status in both Canada and the USA? If you need to file returns in both countries, we can ask someone familiar with international filing situations to assist you.

If you're a first-time filer over the age of 16, entering "0" as your AGI can work.   If under 16, you won't be able to e-file.      You will most likely need to file by mail.   See TurboTax FAQ for other options.  How do I find last year's AGI?
