Fed and state return rejected because of either an incorrect last name or wrong son. Both are correct.

An e-file rejection just means that some things on your return don't match the IRS database.

If you're looking to fix a stimulus reject code, go here. If you're looking to amend (change) your return, go here.

If you received an ACTION NEEDED! email from turbotax@intuit.com, it'll give you a brief explanation of your reject and how to update it. You can also sign in to your TurboTax account and select Fix my return to see your reject code and explanation.

Follow any “fix it” instructions to update the information causing the rejection, and continue through to refile your return (either e-file or file by mail).

Note: Not all rejections will have explicit guides to fixing the information. If you aren't guided to your solution, search for the item causing your rejection and go to that section (you might also be able to find your rejection in the below list of the 10 most “popular” IRS rejects). Make the change and select File in the left-hand menu. Follow the onscreen instructions to either e-file your return or file by mail.

If it is for a spouse, who was married in the past year and changed their last name...sometimes the IRS computers don't get updated as soon as the Social Security Admin (assuming it was properly changed with SS in the first place). 

In such cases, usually changing the last name of the name-changed spouse back to the former last name will work for the current filing, and using the new last name can be done next year instead.
