Efile rejected

Rejected because AGI did not match. Checked and TurboTax had rounded up, IRS rounded down. Corrected in TurboTax.

Re-Filed multiple times. Same error message. The number is correct. It matches IRS record exactly.

Rejected every time for same reason.

Did you efile last year or did you mail in your 2020 return?  Due to the huge backlog of mail-in returns, most 2020 returns were not processed by the IRS until early 2022.  Read somewhere that if your 2020 return was not processed before the end of December 2021, you will need to submit a zero balance for the AGI when efiling your 2021 return.

My e-file returns were rejected several times but the AGI was correct from my 2021 form 1040. I tried entering 0 in the AGI box and resubmitted the returns and it is still getting rejected. Any suggestions?
