I filed my taxes with Turbotax and they messed up and didn't add any of my forms (W-2 and 1098-T) only the refund relief credit was filed. Now I'm trying to file an amended return but Turbotax isn't letting me and other places are confusing. What can I do?

You need to wait until March 25th to file an amended return.

Yes, you will need to file an amended return in order to claim the income reported on the W-2.

The 1098-T might produce additional taxable income or an education credit that you can claim.

H&R Block is letting me do an Amended Return today without having to wait. I already received my return from Turbo Tax, will that money be taken back if I file my Amended Return with H & R Block?

So are you saying you have already received a Federal refund?

When one prepares an amended return, there are at least 4 possible results, depending on one's situation. One may receive additional refund; one may have to pay back all or part of a refund received; one may owe additional tax (if applicable), or there may be no change.

It's difficult to amend a return with a different company's product, but it's possible. If you use their website, you might have to re-enter everything from your original return first exactly as it was filed and then amend it, but I'm not familiar with the process at H&R Block. Or are you referring to physical preparation by one of their brick and mortar agents?
