2019 AGI

phyl3 — Tue, 02 Mar 2021 21:29:03 GMT

2020 taxes rejected for a problem with 2019 AGI. The number on my 2019 tax forms match the number in the error field. How do I get this corrected so that I can submit my 2020 tax returns.

You received an email that we cannot see that tells you why your tax return was rejected.

Some rejected returns can be fixed and re-filed. Some have “un-fixable” reasons for the rejection and have to be mailed instead. What is the rejection code or rejection message?

If it was rejected for AGI—-be aware that many 2019 returns took so long for the IRS to process that your 2019 AGI might not be in the IRS system. Try using zero instead.

If filing with zero is rejected then file again but select the option that you did not file last year. The IRS does not see that question and it will allow you to e-file with no AGI question.

Or—-if you filed as a “non-filer” just to get the stimulus check on a 2019 return, try using $1 as the AGI.

If that does not work and you still cannot e-file, then print, sign, and mail your tax return.

The message reads: "Using last years tax return find Gail's Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) and enter here."

The figures match my 2019 AGI, I re entered, resubmitted and rejected again.
