I need to file an amended federal return for 2025. My original return has already been electronically processed and I've already received my refund. I've followed the turbo tax directions to amend the return but I never get the option to chose my original return to amend.

Is there something wrong with Turbo tax?

Thanks

2015? Sorry---software for 2015 is no longer available, nor would you be able to get a better refund for 2015. Why are you trying to amend 2015 now in 2026?

Or----did you actually mean you need to amend 2025?

Wait until your original return has been fully processed before you amend, and make sure you have saved a pdf of the original return before you amend. (If you do not save it as a pdf, the amended return will overwrite the original, and the original will be lost forever)

See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a tax return -

Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take four months or more for the IRS to process an amended return.
