Your prior year Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) can be found by looking at your 2019 Form 1040, page 2, Line 7.

If you filed with TurboTax in 2020 (for your 2019 tax return), your prior year AGI should automatically pull over.

If you did not file a tax return for 2018, you should enter $0 for the prior year AGI.

If either of the above is not available to you, you also have the option of requesting a transcript from the IRS or requesting an entire copy of your 2018 Tax return using Form 4506 - "Request For Copy of Tax Return" by clicking on the following links:

If you have verified your AGI as being correct here are few possible other reasons why you’re still getting an e-file reject.

If you:

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 2019 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.
