I didn’t file my 2018 taxes

I tried filing my taxes today, and it keeps being rejected because I don’t have my 2018 AGI. I don’t know my 2018 AGI because I didn’t file my taxes in 2018. They were filed in 2017. I have my w2 for 2017. The job I had in 2018 was the job I left a year later in 2019. So I didn’t file my 2018 taxes. However it won’t let me continue

Since you did not file a 2018 return, then you would put zero for your 2018 AGI.

 

Where do I correct my 2018 AGI in TurboTax Online?

 

To revisit the 2018 AGI section in TurboTax Online:

  1. Sign in and open your return, if you haven't already done so.
  2. From the left menu, select File (tap in the upper-left corner to expand the menu on mobile devices).
  3. Select Start next to Step 3 (if needed, revisit Steps 1 and/or 2 to activate Step 3).
  4. Select I want to e-file.
  5. Continue until you see the place to enter your 2018 AGI.

If you keep getting rejected you would have to mail in your return. For some reason the IRS is rejecting your 2018 AGI.

 

You can try calling the IRS & ask them what 2018 AGI they have on

 

The IRS telephone number is 1-800-829-1040, and they are available from 7 a.m. – 7 p.m. Monday thru Friday. The best time to call is early in the morning.

- The first question the automated system will ask you is to choose your language.
- Once you’ve set your language, do NOT choose Option 1 (regarding refund info). Choose option 2 for “Personal Income Tax” instead.
- Next, press 1 for “form, tax history, or payment”.
- Next, press 3 “for all other questions.”
-Next, press 2 “for all other questions.”
- When the system asks you to enter your SSN or EIN to access your account information, do NOT enter anything.
-After it asks twice, you will be prompted with another menu.
-Finally, press 2 for personal or individual tax questions. The system should then transfer you to an agent.
