These instructions to edit my state return form doesn't work at all. I've found nothing and no where can I see my state return to correct it. I also cannot cancel my amend. So I'm gonna have to mail in my incorrect state return because this Intuit Turbo Tax won't let me correct/edit it.

YOU ARE CORRECT,  THESE INSTRUCTIONS DO NOT WORK!

I CANT EVEN GET INTO MY PRINTED BUT UNFILED TAXES TO REVISE WITH ANY OF THE INSTRUCTIONS!

You have missed the October 15, 2019 deadline.  Now online tax preparation and e-filing are closed.  In order to finish your 2018 return you need to use desktop software that you download to a full PC or Mac.  Then you will have to print, sign and mail the return.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS and/or your state received the return.
