Return rejected for incorrect 2020 spouse AGI. The 2020 AGI has been triple checked and it is correct. 2019 return was accepted after 2020 return. Could they want the 2019 AGI. How many times can I try using a different AGI?

No they do not want your 2019 AGI.

If it was rejected for AGI—-be aware that many 2020 returns took so long for the IRS to process that your 2020 AGI might not be in the IRS system. Try using zero instead.

If filing with zero is rejected then file again but select the option that you did not file last year. The IRS does not see that question and it will allow you to e-file with no AGI question.

If that does not work and you still cannot e-file, then print, sign, and mail your tax return.
