Missed reporting a 1099-r that reduced my refund by $35. Turbo system states not developed yet. Might anyone know when Turbo will be able to finish the system to process amendments for 2021?

The 1040X will be ready sometime late February to mid March.   You should not try to amend until your original return has been fully processed.

I have already received a refund, why can't I just amend my taxes.  What is causing the hold up

Turbo Tax won't have the Amended form 1040X ready until March 17.  See

https://care-cdn.prodsupportsite.a.intuit.com/forms-availability/turbotax_fed_online_individual.html 

 

Here is a blank one to do it manually

@xmasbaby0 is correct. 

 

Since your refund amount changed, you'll need to file an amended return. Please see the TurboTax FAQ for the status of Form 1040-X.

The form is available now. Here is the list of federal form availability that shows that Form 1040-X is available.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a 2021 return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-return/help/how-do-i-amend-my-2021-return/00/2544441

Yes, you can e-file your 2021 amended federal return in TurboTax, but only some states allow you to e-file your amended state return. We’ll walk you through the filing options for your state at the end of the amendment process.

 

For more information, please see the TurboTax FAQ below:

How do I amend my 2021 return?


I have the Mac desktop version of TurboTax 2021. I e-filed the federal and state for 2021. I then e-filed another state and need to amend the first state. I figured out how to amend the state (which was nothing like the instructions on the link provided). However, I don't see any way to e-file the state. This is for Iowa, which allows e-filing state, according to TurboTax help.

https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/e-file/help/can-i-efile-an-ame[product key removed]n/00/27183

 

When I go to the section to file returns, it just shows that all 3 returns have been filed and I don't see any options to e-file the amended Iowa return.

I found this help topic updated on 2/10 that says the functionality will be available.

https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/amending/help/can-i-e-file-my-1040x-to-amend-my-return/00/26008

 

Is this functionality implemented?

If so, how can I do this?

 

Also, printing the amended return only prints the main form without the supporting forms that should probably be included to show where the numbers are coming from. All of the forms appear in the PDF file when saving the return to PDF. If I were to file an amended paper return, it isn't clear which of these forms to send.

If I am unable to e-file, I'd like to know which forms to send to file the amended Iowa return.

Taxes owed on an amended tax return cannot be paid by direct debit from a bank account.  They have to be paid by check included with the mailed tax return.

Or you can pay using the IRS payment website for Direct Pay - https://www.irs.gov/payments
