I got an snail mail recently from one of the bank saying they are under calculated my interest and they will send me an corrected 1099 later for year 2022. I try to go into the 2022 turbo tax and amend my return. After correct the bank interest amount and go through the whole process. At the end of Smart Check, it say Form 1040, schedule 1,  schedule 2, schedule B etc... available to file by mail and available to e-file ready soon. I click the online update to check, the software is up to day. Am I doing something wrong? Please advise. Thanks.

    A 2022 federal amended tax return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS when using TurboTax.  In the File section of the program select File by Mail and Not E-file.

    I don't see the option of file by mail. Under the File section, it only have New tax return, Open tax return, Save, Save as, Password, Save to PDF, Remove State Return, Import, Remove Import Data, Print, Preview, Electronic Filing, Sign in, Exit. When I did a preview, the form is stil 1040 not 1040x. Only the data change.

    Using the TurboTax desktop editions for tax year 2022 to file a tax return you need to click on the File tab on the top right of the desktop program screen.

    If you did not start an amended tax return, then remove any changes you have made to the tax return that was filed.

    To amend the 2022 tax return using the TurboTax desktop editions -

    Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home & Business)

    Click on Other Tax Situations

    Under Other Tax Forms

    On Amend a return, click on the start button.
