IRS rejected my2019 return

the IRS is not accepting an e-filing of 2020 taxes since 2019 is still processing per my IRS tax transcript.  so do I need to mail in my 2020 return ?

Enter a 0 (zero) for the 2019 AGI and e-file the tax return again.

If the IRS is rejecting the 2019 AGI and the 0 for the 2019 AGI then your only option is to print and mail the tax return to the IRS.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for mailing a tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/printing/help/how-do-i-print-and-mail-my-return-in-turbotax-online/01/26258
