I’m filling my 2020 tax they are saying my AGI from 2019 is the wrong number but it’s what’s on my 2019 w-2? I got my state return but owed federal

I owed last year never payed yet but why is it saying my AGI is wrong when it isn’t

The 2019 AGI is not on your W-2

 

The 2019 AGI is found on your 2019 Federal tax return Form 1040 Line 8b

 

To access your prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on View adjusted gross income (AGI)

 

If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created.  TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.

 

Or go to this IRS website for free federal tax return transcripts - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

For a fee of $43 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

Remember your AGI is your Adjusted Gross Income, not just what's on your W-2. The correct number is on your tax return from last year. Good luck!
