I need to amend my California 2023 taxes. But after completing the 1040X online TT says "Amended returns cannot be electronically filed". I've already efiled this year's taxes and received my Federal/State refunds. Why won't TT let me efile my 1040X?

TurboTax does not currently support e-filing of California Schedule X, California Explanation of Amended Return Changes.

Please see this online tool for the availability of Federal and State forms in TurboTax and whether they can be e-filed.

It says Federal 1040X can be efiled. Can I efile the 1040X  without doing a State amended Efile? Thanks

Yes. Follow the instructions below for amending.

If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been submitted, you should follow these guidelines. 

• You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
• You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
• Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.
• The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
• Only make changes to the areas of your return that need amending.
• You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment
