My 2020 returns were rejected as my AGI is not matching on my 2019 returns. I since found out that my 2019 returns have not been processed. How do I fix my 2020 return?

What should I put as my AGI amount on my 2020 returns so they are accepted? I originally put the correct AGI but this has not been processed, mailed in Feb 2020.

Please click here for assistance with your AGI.

If your 2019 return has not been processed, then you would put $0 in the AGI.

My Federal return was rejected a second time. First the AGI for me did not match (2019 not processed yet). Next time I put "0" as my AGI, still rejected, as my wife's AGI did not match (she had no income in 2019 or 2020). I have filed again using "0" as her AGI. If this fails what can I do?

If you unable to get your 2019 AGI to e-file your 2020 tax return, you can request your tax transcript on the IRS website or print and mail your return to the IRS.
