This is a common complaint

It's not clear if you started AMEND correctly

 

Alway make a paper copy of your original return before amending with TurboTax because you will lose it otherwise.

Is this the amount that you would have owed on your original tax return?

  • If so did you already make the payment?
  • If you did make a payment and its a smaller number, that may represent a tax penalty that you still owe.
