You received an email that we cannot see that tells you why your tax return was rejected.  

Some rejected returns can be fixed and re-filed.  Some have “un-fixable” reasons for the rejection and have to be mailed instead. What is the rejection code or rejection message? 

 If it was rejected for AGI—-be aware that many 2021 returns took so long for the IRS to process that your 2021 AGI might not be in the IRS system.   Try using zero instead.

 

If filing with zero is rejected then file again but select the option that you did not file last year.  The IRS does not see that question and it will allow you to e-file with no AGI question.

If that does not work and you still cannot e-file, then print, sign, and mail your tax return.

In what way did your filing status change? Do you mean that your filing status for 2022 is different from your filing status for 2021? That would not cause an e-file to be rejected. Or do you mean that you are filing an amended 2022 return with a filing status that is different from your original 2022 return? I don't think TurboTax allows you to e-file an amended return if you are changing the filing status.


What is the complete, exact reject message that you got, word for word, including the code?
