My return was rejected because the EINs didn't match IRS records. My 1099-Rs all use TIN and those numbers are correct..... How to fix?

Are the TINs the same as EINs?  If not how do I get the EINs for my payers?

The Payer's TIN is what you should use.   If you've entered the correct numbers correctly and got rejected I would mail the return with the "B" copy of the 1099-Rs attached.

The payers EIN/TIN is on the 1099-R that they send you right under the payers name.   If not correct then contact the payer.
