E File

My e file was rejected because the AGI number from my 2020 taxes was wrong. I took the number off of my copy of last years taxes and got a transcript of my 2020 taxes from the IRS.....all of the numbers are the same. Is there an alternative method of proving who I am to the IRS which will allow me to e-file. Tried to go through the IRS phone maze, but that is impossible to follow and there are no live people available to talk too

    There is a possibility that the IRS does not have your 2020 AGI in their database.

     

    Enter a 0 (zero) for the 2020 AGI and e-file the 2021 tax return again.

    I requested a transcript and the transcript has the correct amount. Is it possible that they have the number in the transcript, but not in the data base?
