You cannot change or add anything on the return that you just e-filed, nor can you stop it. It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox on the corner.
If you left out a W-2, or a dependent, or a 1099 etc…DO NOT change your return while it is pending. The changes will go nowhere.
Now you have to wait until the IRS either rejects or accepts your return. If your return is rejected, you will be able to go into your account and make the necessary changes to your tax return and re-submit your return.
If the IRS accepts your return, however, then you have to wait longer until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund. THEN you can prepare an amended tax return and mail it in. You have to be able to work from that return exactly the way it was when it was e-filed originally. You will need to use a form called a 1040X. You cannot e-file an amended return. They have to be mailed, and it takes about 4 months for the IRS to process an amended return.
Meanwhile, DO NOT go in and start changing anything on your return in the system, or you will make a mess for yourself. Sit tight and wait until you see what the IRS does with the return you just e-filed
I filed my original 2019 returned and received the refund in about 6 days. Refund $5,799
Afterwards I received a K-1 form. I try to amend, entered the information on the amended K-1 form.
But my original filed form does not show...like its gone.
Any way I can retrieve it from wherever it went to . It saved the K-1 information over the original form.
I have a paper copy of the original form.
Help.
The original return should come up when you start the amend return option in TurboTax. If you are working online with the return, then you may have signed in under a wrong user ID. Otherwise, the return would be there.
If you mean you are working on the desktop version of TurboTax, then the return would have been saved on your computer. You may be able to find it by doing a search for a ".tax" file.
