There are some state returns that get rejected because your information does not match what the state has on record for you when you verify your information. To fix this error, please follow these steps carefully:

Make sure you have entered the previous year's AGI correctly
Verify your PIN
Make sure to enter all 8 digits (This is not your 5 digit federal PIN)
Verify your drivers license or state ID number is entered correctly
If it is your first year filing with your state, you will have to enter your Driver's License or state ID information
Enter each field exactly as it is on your Drivers License or state ID (First Name, Middle Name, Last Name, Suffix (leave blank if necessary), and weight
You may not use an out-of-state or expired drivers license
You may need to print and mail your return if the reject continues after re-transmitting
