What is my AGI if I filed "married jointly" last year on my TT account and this year my husband is filing "married jointly" on his TT account? Says my 2016 AGI was wrong.

We tried to file yesterday but it rejected it right away saying the AGI was incorrect. When I look up last years tax info, it states that the AGI was the amount that I put in. Does it matter if were using his TurboTax account this year instead of mine (like we used last year)? Also, I've read to put 0 in the box if you didn't file taxes last year. Do that mean you didn't file at all or you didnt because someone else did for you (aka your spouse?)

You'll both use the same adjusted gross income (AGI) from your originally filed 2016 joint return.

To prevent a rejection, don't split or allocate the AGI, even if doing so seems more logical to you.
