Can the Deluxe version and the Business version be used to file an amendment?

TaxesForGetSmart · ‎August 19, 2025

My now ex-tax preparer made a mistake that I didn't catch on the 1065 which raised my personal taxes significantly for 2024. She now wants $$$ to file an amendment for the 1065 and 1040. Can I use Deluxe and Business to file an amendment for 2024? I understand I will have to enter all the data from scratch.

Yes. You can have both installed at the same time. To amend a return you did somewhere else or you don't have the original.tax file, you would first have to fill out Turbo Tax like you are doing the original return. You have to recreate the actual wrong original return. Then when it matches each line that you really filed you have to tell Turbo Tax you will mail it so it thinks it was filed. Then you can amend it. You will have to mail the amended returns. Mail them in separate envelopes.
