When unexpected results occur, I recommend signing out of the program and closing the browser window completely. Wait a minute.

 

Then, open an incognito Chrome Window. Go to the TurboTax support at this link: TurboTax Updates for Stimulus Payment Registration.

This issue should be corrected soon.  Please retry electronically filing your stimulus registration later today.  This issue should be fixed.  

 

Please make sure that  this link you used to file for your Stimulus Registration.   On this link, select If you don't need to file your taxes this year:

I had the same problem. However I don’t have an option to try to do an online submission again. It only gives me the option to print

Why was my stimulus rejected

My stimulus check said rejected and I don't know why I did not have enough income to file a return this year so I registered and it told me I have to mail it in

These links may help explain and guide you through the process.

https://turbotax.intuit.com/stimulus-check/ link to stimulus registration (SR).  It is very important that you uses this link that says register now if you don't need to file taxes this year.  Otherwise, you will not be able to E-file a zero return. It also has the calculator.

 

The IRS says it is working on developing a web-based system for people to give the government their direct-deposit information. Keep checking www.irs.gov/coronavirus for more details on this.

You're welcome!

I have this same issue. You are advising to re-file electronically. Does this mean creating another account? When I went to the link specified and tried incognito mode, it still prompted me to sign into my account, which of course did not give me an option to re-file, only to print.

If you used the stimulus website, you may have picked the wrong option to file a zero return.

Why was my stimulus rejected

I used the correct option for filers that do not have to file a return and who do not receive social security. I input all requested information correctly, submitted and my stimulus registration was rejected with instructions to mail a printed copy. Why is this? Multiple "tax experts" are citing issues with TT and are giving different information such as to re-file, create a new account or just reiterating what I already know. With all due respect, can someone please answer my question? This process is already frustrating without "tax experts" adding to the confusion with answers that seem to dodge the actual question
