I filed an amended federal return through turbotax desktop and it got rejected with an FPYMT-089 error telling me that my 'PaymentAmt' must not be more than 200% of 'OwedAmt'. When I open my return in turbotax, I'm not given any instruction on how to fix it. What values do I need to adjust and where? My amendment did not cause me to owe/get refunded any extra amount. I was just reporting non-deductible IRA contributions that were not included in my original return

I have this exact issue and a related reason. Did you get an answer for this? I had to file an amended return due to a K-1 form I wasn't expecting just showing up. I also did not have an adjustment on the refund or payment side. Thanks.

Anyone have an answer to resolving this issue?

Curious.. Did everyone have a net 0 amount due/refunded after filing the amendment?

If so, did you provide payment information at the end OR did you opt to “Pay later” via check.

I put payment information to my checking account and I wonder if that is what is causing this error.

My amended tax return was also rejected with the same error. I received a corrected brokerage statement after I'd filed my return that adjusted the cost of a sale by a few cents...not enough to change the amount of tax due. The tax due = 0 on the amended return. So , it appears I share a common problem in that I'm left wondering how to fix this. And ideas?

@Baw55 did filing without payment information get accepted?

I re-submitted my amended return and it was accepted after I reset the payment settings from auto w/drawal to pay by check. Hopefully, the IRS isn't expecting me to mail in a check for zero dollars and zero cents!!!!
