You can't efile a prior year from Turbo Tax.  You have to print and mail it.

Alright. Wouldn’t it say pending rather than rejected? Also, it keeps telling me that I have errors, there aren’t any. I’ve went over it several times. At the end of going through all of the steps for the amended tax year, it tells me that I’m done. Nothing more to do. 
my main confusion is the wording “rejected”.

what was changed on the w-2c? not every change requires the filing of an amended return

If the source is from IRS.GOV then yes.

@Pdxpoints It is true that the IRS can accept e-filed amended returns, but the catch is that only some paid tax professionals with professional tax software have the ability to e-file a past year amended return.  You are posting to a thread that asked about a 2020 amended return.  You will not be able to e-file an amended 2020 return using TurboTax do-it-yourself software.  The return will have to be sent in by mail.
