Recently had to amend my tax return to account for a 1099-NEC that I received late (after I filed). Not a huge deal. I use TurboTax desktop and filed the amended return. Everything went smooth and looked good. No errors, so I e-filed the amended return. About an hour later it came back rejected. I got the following error message:
/Return/ReturnData/IRS1040X/NetChangeOrigRptOrPrevAdjGrp/TotalAdditionalDeductionsAmt - Data in the return is missing or invalid. Please double check your entries.
Went back into TurboTax but the review button did nothing. I reviewed the tax return by hand and noticed nothing out of the ordinary (I'm not a tax professional though).
I looked online and scoured the internet and found 3 possible reasons.
1. The IRS is not accepting amended returns right now for 2025 taxes.
2. There's a processing error with the TurboTax software that might be fixed on 3/6/26
3. My return is messed up and I need to find the discrepancy.
Just looking for a little clarification. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
