Have been using TT download for Mac for 15 years. Need to amend last 3 years of returns, how do I accomplish this using existing TT forms for each tax year?

One return at a time----open the TT program for the specific tax year on your hard drive   Go to Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Tax Forms>Amend a Return

 

Your past year amended returns will have to be mailed.  They cannot be e-filed.  Use a mailing service like certified mail so you will know they were received, since you will have a long wait.

 

Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take four months or more for the IRS to process an amended return.  

 

You can watch for information here:

Outstanding, worked perfectly.

 

For those of us small percentage users needing to amend a return, not sure why they hide it there but I got this.

 

Thanks!
