Corrected AIG rejection

[sbarsik1187]

I entered the wrong AIG while filing. Federal and state came back with a rejection. Turbo tax notified me, and lead me through prompts for correcting it. My question is correcting AIG after return was rejected by IRS, is my return now considered an "amended return"? Follow up question is now that I refilled with turbo tax with the correct AIG. How long will it take for the IRS to receive and accept or reject my return ? I'm just concerned because it states that the IRS responds with a rejection or acceptance within 24-48 hours and it has been 2 days.

No it’s not an amended return.  You didn’t click on amend, did you?   Since the first efile was rejected then it wasn’t filed at all.   You are still filing an original return.   The IRS should Accept or Reject it the same time as the first one.   Are you sure you efiled it again?  Did you go all the way through the File tab, through the 3 steps and hit the big orange Transmit Returns Now button?

When you efile you get back 2 emails.  The first email only confirms the transmission.  The second email says if the IRS (or state) Accepted or Rejected your efile.  And check your spam folder for them.

When you log into your account you should also see the status and if it was Accepted or Rejected, Started, Printed, Ready to Mail, etc.  What does it say?

Here’s more info on a rejected AGI. Try entering 0 for the AGI. The IRS might have processed your return later so the AGI didn't get entered in time.  Especially if you mailed it.  That works for most people. See,

If you can’t get it to efile you will have to print and mail it.

Be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. No I did not select amended return, I just followed the steps prompted by Turbo Tax and transmitted the correction. It shows the original e-file date and states rejected and the new e-file date and says pending. And it was refiled on the 21st at 11am, so more that the 48 hrs it says to wait for an acceptance or rejection..

I filed originally with 0 and got rejected. Honestly, I mistakenly entered 0. I found my correct AIG and entered that with the refile. I'm just hoping refiling doesn't hold my return up.
