What is the rejection message you are getting?   The rounding you mentioned is not incorrect.  The software rounds amount up or down, and puts whole amounts on the Form 1040, not amounts with "cents."

This cannot be a rejection issue by the IRS since they themselves round everything as well.    What is the exact rejection message or code ?

Try inputting 1280 in line 2. The IRS rounds to the nearest dollar.
