No. Only a return prepared using TurboTax can be e-filed from TT. But you can print, sign and mail your Form 1040X.
with Turbotax only a 2023 amended return can be e-filed and i believe the original must have been e-filed using Turbotax. if by different platform you mean a different app than Turbotax there would be no way to e-file that return using Turbotax. if you used Turbotax originally, the amended return would have to be done using Turbotax.
That is correct. If the original return was not prepared and e-filed using TurboTax, you could not e-file an amended return. The amended return would have to be filed by mail. This is not a situation for TT to help you with. You will just have to mail in your amended return if you cannot e-file it from the platform you used.
Use a mailing service that can track it like certified mail, since you will have a long wait for the IRS to process it. It will be weeks before you can see any information on the IRS site.
Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take five months or more for the IRS to process an amended return.
