The problem is that the criteria array and the values array needs to be the
same size.
you could use
=SUMIF(C:C,J5,E:E)+SUMIF(C:C,J5,F:F)
or
=sumproduct(--(C1:C1000=J5),E1:E1000+F1:F1000)
Note you cannot use full columns in Sumproduct C1:C1000 is OK C:C is not
and the arrays need to be the same size in Sumproduct
(E1:E1000+F1:F1000 is really just a one thousand unit array, even though it
looks bigger)

is doing a SUMIF over multiple columns not allowed?

This formula works =SUMIF(C:C,J5,E:E)
but this does not: =SUMIF(C:C,J5,E:F)
