I verified the AGI with IRS Transcript and it is still rejecting my e-file. What should I use? I did not e-file 2020, is this why?

 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.

 

I was able to finally get it to go through.  It took seven attempts but stuck to the amount entered on the IRS transcript.  Just keep trying.
