Multiple rejections from IRS even after fixing errors - what am I doing wrong?
This is the third time trying to submit my return and it keeps getting rejected. I've fixed every error they point out but then it just gets rejected again for something new. First it was a wrong birthday, then wrong AGI from last year, now something about my W2 not matching. I'm using the same tax software as last year. Anyone else dealing with this? Starting to lose my mind here.

Tax preparer here - this is actually pretty common. The most frequent rejection reasons are mismatched info between what's on file with SSA/IRS and what you're entering. Double check your W2 info character by character, verify SSNs for everyone on return, and make sure you're using the exact AGI from last year's return (not from any amended returns). Also check if your employer made any W2 corrections.

Instead of playing detective, you should try taxr.ai - it's this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's wrong and how to fix it. Its only $1 and saved me hours of headache. https://taxr.ai

How does it work exactly? Does it just read the transcript or what

It uses AI to analyze everything - shows you errors, explains weird codes, predicts refund dates, everything. Its like having a tax pro in your pocket 💯
