Was your federal Accepted?  Rejected code REJ001 indicates that your state has rejected your state return because your Federal return has not been accepted yet. You will need to go into TurboTax and re-file your state return after your Federal return has been accepted.

 

For Federal reject....If your 2020 AGI is rejecting then try entering 0 for the AGI. That has been working for most people. The IRS took a long time to process 2020 returns so the AGI didn't get entered in time.

Thank you so much for the advice. By entering 0 for my AGI my federal taxes went through and I am just waiting for my State taxes to be accepted. Really appreciate your help.
