My extension came back rejected for the reason below. I only submitted it once so I'm not sure what this means. I did go backwards to correct an error though, perhaps this caused the reject.

Reason for reject
R0000-902-01 - Taxpayer TIN in the Return Header must not be the same as a TIN of a previously accepted electronic return for the return type and tax period indicated in the tax return.
