The Form 1040-X for amending a 2025 federal tax return is estimated to be available in TurboTax on 02/25/2026

 

You will have to wait for the IRS to either Accept or Reject your filed federal tax return.
If the return is rejected you can make the necessary changes and e-file again.
If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return.


Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.

On the website Select

  • Select return type [1040 Individual]
  • Select agency [US - Federal]
  • Third Box [1040X]

Once available, you can make a change to a tax return that has already been filed and accepted.  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 ‌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
