IRS says I can file an amendment online years later, but Intuit won't let it process?

Is there a fix for this? Why is the IRS allowing e-filing of amendments but TurboTax isn't? Is there a workaround like downloading the TurboTax file to another Accounting system that another company uses to file? This seems backwards. If the IRS can accept it electronically years later, I would like to not print and mail it.

Sorry----you can e-file an amended 2021 return using TurboTax but you cannot e-file any earlier tax year amended return using TurboTax.  Some professional paid tax preparers can e-file earlier year amended returns, but if you are using TT to amend, the only way to file it is by mail if it is for 2020 or earlier.
