Amended return - glitch or do I have to mail something?

Hi, and thanks in advance for any help!

 

Just filed my amended return. At first, TT told me I had to print and mail it, so I printed (only federal printed at that point). Then I kept going and TT said I can e-file both federal and state, so I e-filed and it said I could have the amount owed deducted from my checking account. Also it let me now print BOTH federal and state.

 

So far so good. Then I keep going and TT says something like 'wait, you're not done - even though you've efiled, you still have to mail this form'. Ok. So I print the form to mail and it is:

 

(1) A dos and don'ts checklick for the individual / Fiduciary Payment Voucher. The payment voucher has amended return checked and electronically filed checked, along with 09-Individual checked. Says it is for my State (GA) department of revenue. 

 

(2) Along with this, it prints out form 8453 which says ' file this form only if you are attaching one or more of the following forms or supporting documents', and Form 8949 is checked.

 

Am I supposed to include Form 8949, which did not print by the way. And it was already included in the electronic submission. And, plot twist, it did not change b/c only Schedule D changed (entered in aggregate so not included on 8949).

Amended return - glitch or do I have to mail something?

If you received a message stating that your federal and state amended returns were electronically filed and accepted, then they were successfully submitted.  You can also contact us with the information in this link to confirm the status of your amended returns.  

 

If you elected to make any payments electronically, then you would not need to mail in the payment voucher.  However, if you did not set up electronic payment for the amount due, you will need to mail the payment with the voucher as instructed.

 

In regards to Form 8949, if there are no changes to the form as originally filed, you would not need to mail this form in either. 

 

Please see the following links for more details on tracking your amended returns after they have been filed.
