I signed up to do the free IRS filing but got rejected unfortunately because I had entered into a domestic partnership which made me ineligible. Not really sure why since I was filing single anyway but oh well, this is good news and I can't wait to try it next year.

The test was limited to make sure the core fundamentals worked. Your situation is an "edge case," i.e an unlikely situation that makes things much harder to code.

It sounds like they cut you out to make sure the product worked, and will now be on working "edge cases," by far the hardest part of any computer engineering.
