rejected tax return

[coffgock]

I am an immigrant and my husband filed always our taxes, he did not file1919 because he was in the hospital and ill for 9 months. Our income has been approx the same for the last few years. My husband passed away and I filed with you his partial income (he passed away) and my income. I do not know why my filing was rejected?

It may be because the Social Security Admin locked his SSN after his passing was reported to them.  As it is too late to efile 2019 now, you will have to print, sign and file your 2019 Joint return by mail.

I Printed and mailed my deceased husband's joint tax return for 2020. I hope to hear from the IRS since they rejected my e filing.
