Can TurboTax Premier compute, generate and populate Form 1040X for filing amended return?

[EdwardK · Accepted solution]

Yes. You may follow the amend instructions, How to amend (change or correct) a return you already filed?, and TurboTax should compute, generate and populate Form 1040X.

However, if you have not received the refund(s) you originally filed for or paid taxes owed, then you should wait until those transaction(s) occur because the IRS and/or state department(s) of revenue may determine the change(s) you need to make and may not want you to file amended tax return(s) and instead, may provide instructions how they want you to proceed.

Furthermore, TurboTax calculates amended tax refund(s) or taxes owed based on the assumption you already received the refund(s) you originally filed for or paid taxes owed. Thus, if you don't actually receive the original refund(s) you filed for or need to adjust the amount(s), please keep that in mind when you amend your tax return(s).
