I needed to amend my 2021 return for additional income. When I looked at the resultant 1040X I noticed the deduction had also been modified....but I used the standard deduction and made no changes in that area. It looks like the 1040X added back in the charitable amount which was not changed by the amendment and should not have changed.

Below are screen shots of my original 1040 and the amended 1040X showing the 1040X incorrectly adding back in the charitable contribution.

You should not be amending your 2021 return yet. The 1040X will not be ready in TurboTax until March 25th. Additionally, you need to make sure that you do not file an amended return until after your original return has been completely processed and you have either received your refund or received a letter from the IRS telling you that they have adjusted your return.

Well that's nice to know....nothing in the software has stopped me...at least not yet. Of course seeing the problem I never filed. And I have met all your other requirements. I will wait.
