TurboTax computed my amended return wrong. How can I get this corrected by TurboTax?

[mwcorne]

I received another 199 after I filed my taxes. I had TurboTax complete my amended return, but when I checked it, the information is incorrect. The incorrect information is the amount of my original return and the computations that followed this entry.

If you haven't mailed in your amended tax return, then you can delete or undo the amendment and then amend again.

If you want to undo or delete the amended tax return, you can do so by following the steps below:

After the amended tax return is deleted, if you still want to amend, then you will want to wait until your tax return is accepted or rejected. If it is rejected, then you can go in and fix the mistake. If accepted, then you will want to wait until your original tax return is processed by the IRS. If you are receiving a refund, you should wait until the check is issued. Amended returns must be filed by mail. 

To amend a 2017 return, follow the steps in the article below (The 2017 amended tax return instructions will be available sometime in late January/Early February):

@gkitte1981 Could you please clarify your question? Are you not about to access your TurboTax account to make corrections?

Why is Turbo Tax so terrible now? They used to be great. I had to file an amended return and it was completely incorrect. Now I have a HUGE bill from the IRS. WTH Turbo Tax, you are supposed to help with tax preparation. Not make it incredibly more stressful.

You used a DIY program to amend the return which should have been reviewed by you thoroughly before you filed it.   Most user errors can be caught before it is sent.   Now you need to amend the amendment which is not easy so getting local professional assistance may be wise at this point.

To amend a second time you need

a) a printout of the 1040-X No.1 you sent already,

b) a printout of your truly correct (second iteration) Form 1040 and its attachments.

After that, it's just a matter of filling out the Form 1040-X No.2, where

Col A will show 1040-X No.1 Col C.
