If your spouse filed a Married Filing Separate return, then your name and Social Security number would be required to be included as part of the return.  However, only the primary taxpayer (your spouse) would be considered to have filed a tax return.  

If your spouse filed a Married Filing Joint return, then your Social Security number would be in the system as having filed a return.  

Take a closer look at the rejection code to see if it says your Social Security number has been used as a primary or secondary taxpayer on a return.  If so, that would indicate that a joint return was filed, not a separate return.  If a joint return was filed, then your share of the stimulus payment will be made jointly with your spouse's.

Thanks, this is the error I received from the IRS. 

Here is your error(s):

Issue      : Business Rule IND-511 - For the filing status selected in the return, the Primary SSN in the Return Header must not be the same as Spouse SSN on another return with filing status Married filing separately.

If I recall correctly ... the registration program only allows SINGLE or Married Filing Jointly filing statuses  ... so if the spouse has already filed MFS  then for the stimulus registration process ONLY  you are to use Single for the filing status.  If you are still rejected using single then you will need to use the regular program to file a separate return. 

Do you have any kind of income to report at all ?   Do you only get SS benefits ?

I relocate to the US as a permanent resident in November. I worked for a company as a technical advisor from December to end of January. Most of my payments was done in January. I received part of the payment on December. The company sent me a w2 but it's that did not have any amounts held for taxes etc That's is what am trying to us to fill out my tax for 2019 and also get the stimulus. One the IRS site I filed single and got the rejection and the error was.Business Rule IND-511. I tried filing electronically using turbo tax but that didn't work either.

Well since you must file a 2019 return do NOT use the stimulus program ... you must file a complete return and you must use the MFS filing status ... if you have no refund on the return you cannot enter the DD information if you efile the return.  But you could manually enter it if you mail in the return BUT mailed in returns are taking 2 months or more to process so this is not a good option. 

If your income is below $50K then the stimulus check will be mailed as soon as the return is processed probably in the next 3 weeks ... entering in DD info will not speed anything up.  So just bite the bullet and file a regular return ... use one of the IRS FREE FILE options if your AGI is $69K or less  ... https://www.irs.gov/filing/free-file-do-your-federal-taxes-for-free
