I filed my taxes on the turbo tax desktop version a month ago and have received both my federal and state refund. I need to amend my return but when I open up my 2025 tax return in turbo tax I don’t see an amend button and the app is asking if I want to “finish my return” even though it has already been accepted and I’ve received the refund. What should I do?

If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been filed and accepted by the taxing agency, you should follow these guidelines.

You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return. 
The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected.
You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment

Select your product below and follow the instructions.
