Hello

My return has been rejected 4 times with this code. I checked the tax withheld and it is correct. I only have SSA 1099 with no taxes withheld and R1099 from retirement with taxes with held. Just doesn't make any sense at all.

"F1040-034-08 - Form 1040, 'WithholdingTaxAmt' must be equal to the sum of the following: [(1) all Forms 1099-R, 'FederalIncomeTaxWithheldAmt' and (2) all 'WithholdingAmt' in [OtherWithholdingStatement] and (3) all Forms W-2, 'WithholdingAmt' and (4) all Forms W-2G, 'FederalIncomeTaxWithheldAmt' and (5) Form 8959, 'AddlMedcrRRTTaxWithholdingAmt' and (6) 'TotalAmt' in [BackupWhSchedulesK1Statement] and (7) all Forms RRB 1042-S, 'FederalIncomeTaxWithheldAmt' and (8) all Forms SSA 1042-S, ('NetTaxWithheldAmt' if it has a non-zero value, otherwise 'FederalIncomeTaxWithheldAmt')] unless Form 8958 is present in the return. When evaluating this, a tolerance of $5.00 is allowed"

If you have corrected all this the total withholding listed on your return match, the only option may be to delete the forms with withholding and re-enter them. Or you can paper file.

Here's how you can fix it:

Sign in to your account and select the Fix my return button. Follow any “fix it” instructions to update the information causing the rejection.

Note: Not all rejections will have explicit guides to fix the information. You’ll need to navigate to the program area to address the cause of the rejection.

Time-saving Tip: If what you originally entered is correct, you won't be able to e-file. There's probably a data mismatch at the government, a dependent that's already been claimed, or some other situation beyond your control that prevents your return from being e-filed. In this case, your only option would be to print and mail in your return. This article will give you instruction on how to print and mail your return.
