I want to file an extension but now I need to file an extension. My filing wasn't accepted because my prior year AGI was incorrect. any suggestions regarding extension?

Try using a Zero for your 2020 AGI.  It has gotten allot of users to e-file and get accepted.

You have several options:

1) Use Turbotax to request extension
See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Vu4agRok68.

2)  Use IRS site to request extension

3)  Print the extension request form and mail it.

Due date is today.  Postmark by today is okay.
