The Form 1040X is scheduled to be available on February 19.   The date is subject to change, so check on 2-19 to see if it is ready.   Before that, do not change anything at all on your return.

Also, before you amend make sure that your original return has been fully processed by the IRS, this means that you have received your refund or that you have already paid if you had a balance.  Make sure that you do have to amend a return, calculation issues are usually resolved by the IRS.  Some of the most common situations where you would need to amend are if you missed a credit, need to add/remove a dependent,  change your filing status, or add additional income. 

 

To amend your return:

 

  1. Log in to your TurboTax account
  2. Go to Tax Home
  3. On the FAQ's on the right side, select How do I amend my return?
  4. The option of Amend Using TurboTax will show, select it.

The program will guide you as you make the changes necessary, you do not need to enter anything other than what you are changing.
