The only way you will be able to e-file a tax return with no income at all is to enter a bogus $1 of interest as income; that is a trick the IRS allows that will permit you to e-file.

One solution is to get a paper form from IRS (or download from IRS website) and fill it out manually and mail it or deliver it to an IRS office.
