I thought I filed an amended return! I missed some taxes that were added on the W2's that caused the State to initially reject my tax return.

I was certain I filed an amendment.  I don't see the 1040X on what I filed.  What now?

To successfully amend your return you must Mail in your return.

Follow instructions below.

  1. Sign in to your TurboTax account, if you're not already signed in. 
  2. In the 2016 Tax Year section, click Amend (change) return
    • Note: If you see an orange Take me to my return button, you can't amend because you haven't filed yet. Just click or tap that button to open your return and make your changes.
  3. In the pop-up, click Amend using TurboTax Online
  4. Click Continue on the We'll help you change (amend) your return screen.
  5. Follow the on-screen directions to amend your return.
    • Don't worry if your refund drops to zero or does strange things while you are amending. Your calculations will come out correctly in the end.
  6. When you're done, we'll provide instructions to print and mail your amended return because an amended return can't be e-filed.
You can track your amended taxes with the IRS tracking tool. It takes the IRS around 16 weeks to process your amended taxes

No, I thought it was an e-file.

Regrettably, I really don't know. I apologize for the inconvenience.
