e-file 1040-x problem

I forgot one minor source of income and have already e-filed. So I need to submit a 1040-x. I found the form on Turbotax and filled out the form, and everything looks correct. However, it is not letting me e-file this form. The notice says that the form is not yet available for e-filing. At the bottom it says I'll need to mail the form. Will Turbotax have the form ready soon for e-filing or will I not be able to e-file the form ans so should I just print the form and mail it in? Any suggestions?

 

 

Thanks,

Derek

You need to wait.   You should not be sending in an amended return until the IRS has fully processed the return you just e-filed.     The 1040X will be ready in TurboTax for you to use and e-file sometime by mid to late February.

Thanks for your help! I'll put a not on my calendar to come back to the program at the end of February.

Again, thanks for the quick reply.
