IRS rejected my2019 return

the IRS is not accepting an e-filing of 2020 taxes since 2019 is still processing per my IRS tax transcript.  so do I need to mail in my 2020 return ?

    Enter a 0 (zero) for the 2019 AGI and e-file the tax return again.

    If the IRS is rejecting the 2019 AGI and the 0 for the 2019 AGI then your only option is to print and mail the tax return to the IRS.
