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:

You will need to contact the IRS for information. It might be easiest to set up an account with them.

 

IRS Individual Online Account  

  • Taxpayers with a Social Security number or an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number can create or access their IRS Individual Online Account to get information they need to file their return.
  • With an IRS Individual Online Account, people can:
  • View balance owed, payment history and schedule payments.
  • Cancel scheduled payments.
  • Get transcripts.
  • View or create payment plans.
  • See digital copies of some IRS notices.
  • View key data from their most recently filed tax return, including adjusted gross income.
  • Validate bank accounts and save multiple accounts, eliminating the need to re-enter bank account information every time they make a payment.
  • View, approve and electronically sign power of attorney and tax information authorizations from their tax professional.

I got it resolved! Just in case anyone sees this and made the same mistake I did, amended taxes have to be submitted through mail. I spoke with the irs and a turbo tax representative and it turns out if you amend your taxes you can’t submit it electronically.

Glad you got your issue resolved!

 

Generally, however, you can e-file a current year amended federal return via TurboTax if your original return was also e-filed in TurboTax - once the form becomes available.

 

See this tool for information about the availability of forms in TurboTax. As of now, Form 1040X for amended returns is projected to become available on February 13, 2025, subject to change.

 

However, there's a chance your return can't be e-filed based on your unique situation. If this happens, you'll need to print and mail your tax return.

 

If you're amending your return for 2023 or earlier, you need to print and mail your amended return. Follow these instructions to amend a prior-year return.
