F2120-003 e-file error

Each SSN that has a value on Form 2120, 'EligiblePersonWaivingDepdRight' must not be equal to the 'PrimarySSN' in the Return Header. (rule F2120-003)
You'll get this error if a Social Security number (SSN) included on Form 2120 is the same as the taxpayer's.

Solution

  1. Go to the 2120 screen in the General folder.
  2. Review the
    SSN
    entered on this screen. None of them can equal the taxpayer's SSN entered on the 1040 screen.
  3. Correct any necessary
    SSN
    fields.
  4. Recreate and retransmit the return.
