TurboTax will be available to process amended returns for 2025 in late February of 2026.

TurboTax provides a list of Tax form availability ‌for individual Federal and State returns forms that are‌ being revised.

On the website Select

• Select return type [1040 Individual]
• Select agency [US - Federal]
• Third Box [1040X]

Once available, you can make a change to a tax return that has already been filed and accepted.  You should follow these guidelines. 

• You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed. 
• You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return. 
• Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.  
• The refund calculator will start ‌at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due 
• Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected. 
• You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment

The Form 1040X is scheduled to be available on February 26.   The date is subject to change, so check on 2-26  to see if it is ready.   Before that, do not change anything at all on your return.

Your parents do not have to wait for you to amend.

 Waiting will not help them at all.   They can either print, sign and date their return in ink, and file it by mail.

If you are the parent whose e-file has been rejected—- follow the steps above to file your own tax return that claims your child.

If it is any comfort, you (and your parents) are among many young tax filers who make this mistake.  We will be seeing plenty of posts just like yours.   And posts from the parents whose e-files were rejected....
