You wrote: "Can I file my amended now?"

Did you use TurboTax to prepare your original return?
Did you already prepare the amended return? Or do you need to know how to prepare and file one?

An amended return cannot be efiled. It has to be printed, signed, and mailed.

For what tax year are you amending?

What product are you using--Online 2018 TurboTax or desktop software (CD/download)?

If you are amending a 2018 return, were you due a Federal refund with your original return, and if so, have you received the refund yet?

When I used e-file from Turbo Tax Basic for 2018 Form 1040 I thought I had a refund but got a letter from IRS sayunfg I owed money which I paid. I now need change an item of income. A discussion on amending from you said with tge CD version look for "Amend a filed return". I csn't find it. Please tell me where to look.

You might first need to update the filing status of your original return, In the Desktop program open your return and go up to menu item

File > Electronic Filing > Check Electronic Filing Status

Then save your return, File-Save

Then make a copy to do the amended return in, go to File-Save As

You can amend by going to

Federal or Personal (H&B)
