I have pulled our AGI from our IRS return transcript on the IRS website. It is being rejected. I tried inputting 0 which is also rejected. Help?!

I have pulled our AGI from our IRS return transcript on the IRS website. It is being rejected. I tried inputting 0 which is also rejected. Help?!

The IRS requires your 2019 AGI to verify your identity for e-filing. If you verified your AGI amount with the IRS transcript, you can try and call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040, to see what the problem is but they're extremely busy. Expect long wait times. 

  • If you can't get through to the IRS, you'll need to print, sign and mail in your income tax return.

The IRS rejecting returns, even thought the AGI is correct, is quite common. We even have a TurboTax FAQ. See What if I entered the correct AGI and I’m still getting an e-file reject?

 

Note:  How much you made and the AGI needed for filing are not the same. The AGI is the adjusted gross income after all the deductions were allowed but before the credits. Source: AmyC
