You will use the AGI shown on your 2018 tax return for both individuals on your joint return. Your 2018 AGI is on Form 1040 line 7 of your 2018 tax return.

I did enter the AIG from my 2018 tax return, Line 7, but it keeps getting rejected.

Here are some less common reasons why your AGI may not be accepted.

Filed late last year after mid-November or your return was processed after that time—try entering 0.
Amended your return last year—make sure you’re using the AGI from your original return, not the amended one. (If you only have a 1040X form, it’s on line 1, column A).
Rounded your AGI to the nearest dollar—be sure to round up when it’s 50 cents or more and down when it’s 49 cents or less.
Filed with your spouse last year—you and your spouse have the same 2018 AGI. (Don’t split the AGI amount or enter 0 for one of you).

If you still are unable to e-file then you should consider filing by mail. Returns that are rejected for AGI issues when e-filed generally will be accepted when mailed.
