Why is there no option to e-file an amended 2021 Federal tax return with Turbotax Home & Business desktop 2021? NC State amended tax return has the option to e-file.

Turbotax made the decision to close down e-filing for all years except the current year

TurboTax is available for e-file until October 17 when the IRS closes e-file for the 2021 tax year.

Thanks Mike9241.

Well that does not make sense at all on Turbotax's behalf, especially seeing one can e-file amended returns for the several past years. And Turbotax allow to e-file amended State returns.

Edit:  Turbotax clearly states in this support document e-filing is not available for prior years, as you mentioned, thanks again for your help.

A 2021 amended federal tax return cannot be e-filed using the TurboTax personal software. 

It would be surprising if the NC state amended return for tax year 2021 can actually be e-filed using TurboTax after October 2022.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for e-filing a federal tax return (this FAQ is currently for tax year 2021) - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/e-file-1040x-amend-return/L9t...

Thanks DoninGA,

Seems there are a few States according to this supporting document that one can e-file amended State tax returns from 2020 onwards
