I entered my last year’s AGI correctly and have checked it several times. But when I print a copy of my tax return to review it before filing. it continues to show up as a different number. Why is this happening and how can I fix it? I have gone back in and retyped it correctly, but the same issue persists.

Exactly where is it showing? Because the 2023 AGI is only needed to verify your efile and doesn't show up anywhere on your 2024 return or paperwork. Are you looking at 1040 line 11? That is this year's 2024 AGI.

Last year’s AGI is showing up incorrectly on the Federal Carryover Worksheet page 2. This year’s looks correct, both on the 1040 line 11 and on the Federal Carryover Worksheet page. Any tips to fix this?

Well that comes from transferring 2023 into 2024 not from the AGI you entered to efile. Did you transfer from the wrong .tax2023 file or from the wrong online account? Did you change your 2023 return or amend it? Are you entering the AGI from the original 2023 return?

I have the same issue.

In the review copy downloaded, in page "Federal Carryover Worksheet page 2", 2024 column is showing wrong information eventhough I entered correct info in "File" tab "File a Return" section.

I am filing as is, because today is the last day.

You may need to use zero. Look over the FAQ below and see if anything applies; there are a few situations where you may need to use a different amount.

How do I find last year's AGI?

You can e-file your extension through our Easy Extension website. An extension does not give you extra time to pay your taxes, which are due on April 15, 2026. Even if you can't pay your taxes by the deadline, file an extension anyway so you can avoid the late-filing penalty.
