ℹ️️ The IRS decides the reason for rejection. After you submit your e-file, they review your information. If everything matches their records, they approve it; if not, they reject it. Common reasons include mismatched AGI or PIN and other discrepancies:
• Mismatch in Names, Date of Birth, nationality, SSN of the taxpayer
• Mismatch in Names, address, EIN of any employer
• Name, address, EIN of any other payer of income
• Control number of the 1042-S and W-2
⚠️ Unfortunately, you can only e-file once. If there are errors or mismatches, the IRS may reject your e-file. In that case, you must mail your federal tax return following the PDF instructions.
