I entered the wrong amount for my Social Security benefits when I mailed my 1040 in early March. To amend my earlier return, I think the IRS wants a 1040X.  Can Turbo Tax help me complete that form?

Do NOT NOT NOT  file an amended return until the original return has finished processing and you have the original refund in hand.  Your error may be caught and corrected by the IRS so WAIT until they have completed the processing.  You have 3 years to amend so do NOT be in a hurry.
