What is the rejection reason/code?

'PrimaryPriorYearPIN' or 'PrimaryElectronicFilingPIN' or 'PrimaryPriorYearAGIAmt' in the Return Header must match the e-File database.

What does this mean?
 
Make sure you submit a new extension application before the filing deadline.

If you married in 2018, the Primary Taxpayer on your Married Filing Jointly return needs to use their own AGI from their 2017 return.

Since the IRS no longer issues a PIN, you need to be sure the AGI's are correct.

This is strange because I am not married and did not mark my status as married ?

OK.. the same error message applies to all rejected extensions... so make sure your 2017 AGI is correct.

My issue is that my extension information was automatically generated by the turbo tax program and I was not asked for the 2017 AGI information. Very disappointed that the program did not work correctly and now I will owe late filing fees.
