Can I still e file?

You can efile your 2020 tax return here on eFile.com until April 15, 2021. If you owe taxes, you might be subject to Late Filing and Late Payment Fees if you wait until after July 15, 2021 to efile your return. At this point, you can only prepare and mail in the paper tax forms to the IRS and/or state tax agencies.

Why can’t I Efile my return?

Incorrect dependent information If it doesn’t match, the IRS will reject your e-filing. The only way to prevent this type of rejection is to verify the accuracy of your dependent information throughout the entire return before you make your first e-file attempt.

How many times can you e-file after being rejected?

You can re-submit your e-filed return as many times as necessary until the filing deadline in October. However, we recommend that after three unsuccessful attempts (with the same e-file error), you print, sign, and mail your return. Some e-file issues cannot be resolved except by the IRS.

What if I entered the correct AGI and I’m still getting an e-file reject?

If your prior year AGI is wrong when you file, the IRS will reject your return.

If you imported your prior-year AGI and the amount is wrong, right click the field and choose Override.
