When your 2021 e-file was rejected---which must have happened back in 2022---you received an email that had a rejection code or rejection message. We cannot see that email. Most rejections are for AGI. You only need AGI to e-file so AGI no longer matters for your 2021 return. A 2021 return cannot be e-filed. It can only be filed by mail. Print it, sign and date it in ink, and mail it.
If there is something else you need to fix or change you will need to use the CD/download software to make those changes---on a full PC or Mac.
You will be able to access the 2021 return you started by using the exact same account and user ID that you used when you started it. But you can no longer use online software for any further changes.
Start a 2023 return online and enter some personal information so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.
Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2021 returns is now permanently closed.
Now it is too late to use online software or to e-file. If you have any changes/corrections at all to make to your 2021 return, you now have to complete it using desktop software, which you must download to a full PC or Mac (not to a mobile device).Then you need to print, sign and mail it.
If you already paid for your online software you can ask customer support for a download of the desktop software.

If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late. If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe. Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses. Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
