Rejected PIN

LeroyBNeckbone — Wed, 29 Jan 2020 21:11:52 GMT

My return was just rejected for not having a PIN. I went the the IRS website and got my PIN. I then went back to my return and refiled with the PIN. It is still rejected stating that the PIN is invalid. I know I entered it correctly (tried several times). I have tried calling different IRS numbers but none of the menu options fit my issue and I cannot get a live person on line. Any suggestions?

You will need to use your 2018 AGI,

To view your prior year AGI (you must use the same account used last year - username and password)

Sign In to your prior year TTO account (if your using a different account from last year, your AGI will not transfer)
Go to the prior year section of My Tax Timeline,
Click View adjusted gross income (AGI).

You can obtain a copy of last year's tax transcript online using IRS link: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

Thank you for the response. I found my AGI but I do not see anywhere I can apply it.

The Pin i used for my wife and myself was rejected and then i corrected mine with the AGI. But i keep getting rejected due to my wife's pin number being invalid. Turbotax doesn't give me any options to fix this error. What am i doing wrong. How can i use our AGI for my wife?

Thanks

Here is some information about returns rejected because of AGI or PIN;

E-file reject IND-031-04 or IND-032-04: The AGI or Self-select PIN from last year doesn't match IRS records

Same problem. All the replies have to do with the AGI. that doesn;t help.

The IRS has eliminated the use of a PIN to e-file your 2019 tax return. To verify your identity for e-filing will use last year's adjusted gross income (AGI) as your PIN.

No help. I use a AGI from last years printed form. Explain.

If your tax return continues to be rejected with the 2018 AGI then enter a 0 (zero) for the AGI and e-file again.

If this is also rejected then you will have to print and mail the tax return.
