My IL state return was rejected because I entered the wrong prior year AGI. I want to reenter the correction and refile using TurboTax. I can't get to that field!

How do I fix prior year AGI on an IL state return in order to attempt to a repeated e-file?

To fix this error, please follow these steps carefully:

 

  1. Make sure you have entered the previous year's IL AGI correctly
  2. Verify Your IL PIN 
  3. Make sure to enter all 8 digits (This is not your 5 digit federal PIN)
  4. Verify your IL drivers license or state ID number is entered correctly
  5. If it is your first year filing with IL, you will have to enter your IL Drivers License or state ID information
  6. Enter each field exactly as it is on your IL Drivers License or state ID (First Name, Middle Name, Last Name, Suffix (leave blank if necessary), and weight
  7. You may not use an out-of-state or expired drivers license
  8. You may need to print and mail your return if the reject continues after re-transmitting

according to IL instructions, it wants the AGI from the last 2024 return. This means if you amended it wants the AGI from the amended column.
