  You cannot amend a tax return that was just accepted.   You have to wait for it to be processed by the IRS.  Trying to send in an amended return while they are still processing the original return could confuse things and delay your refund for months.

 

Do not try to change anything on your return now.  When you amend, your Form 1040X has to be prepared from the return exactly the way it looked when you filed it originally.   You have to wait.   Once your return has been processed you will complete a Form 1040X   --- which is not yet available --- and submit it to amend the mistakes made when you filed your original return. It takes the IRS at least four months to process an amended return.

The 2020 Form 1040X does not become available until the end of February 2020 (subject to change).

Made a mistakes in claiming expenses on my IRS tax 2020 that already claimed in 2019. Corrected the State but IRS is already accepted. How do I file an amended IRS tax return? I need to return the money since I am overpaid by IRS.

TurboTax will not be available to amend your return until March. When it is available, the buttons will appear on your screen.
