I'm trying to get a small return via some W-2 forms I received. I filed them online and got an e-mail today stating this:
Your tax return e-filed through No 1 Discount Tax Return Service Llc
has been rejected by the IRS for the reasons explained below.
Reject Code - 0679
I looked up on the page what this means and I can't figure it out...
0679:
Authentication Record – When the PIN TYPE Code (SEQ 0008) is
equal to “S” or “O”, the Primary Prior Year Adjusted Gross
Income (SEQ 0020) must match the Primary Prior Year Adjusted
Gross Income on the IRS Master File.
Exception: When the Filing Status (SEQ 0130) equals "2" (Married
Filing Jointly) and the Primary Date of Death (SEQ 0020) is
significant and the Secondary Date of Death (SEQ 0040) is "NOT"
significant on the Tax Return, the Spouse Prior Year Adjusted
Gross Income (SEQ 0050) on the Authentication Record must match
the Spouse Prior Year Adjusted Gross Income on the IRS Master
File.
When the Filing Status (SEQ 0130) equals "2" (Married Filing
Jointly) and the Primary Date of Death (SEQ 0020) "AND" the
Secondary Date of Death (SEQ 0040) are significant on the Tax
Return, the primary Prior Year Adjusted Gross Income on the
Authentication Record must match the Primary Prior Year Adjusted
Gross Income on the IRS Masterfile.

All it seems to be saying is that the number you put in for last year's income doesn't match the number you filed as your income on last year's return.
I thought that too, but I looked at my last two returns and they don't have the previous year's income at all.
The first time my accountant electronically filed for me he assigned me a PIN number that's used for tracking the return through the IRS I guess. I'm wondering if maybe that PIN number doesn't match?
