So I meant to amend my taxes but I ended up refiling and now the second one is rejected. What do I do? How can I change this? And how does this affect my return?

Do you mean you tried to amend 2021?   it is way too soon to amend a 2021 return.   The 1040X that you will need is not yet available, and you cannot just go in and start changing your return.   Change it back to exactly the way it was when you filed it originally.   Then wait until the 1040X is available.   In order to amend correctly, you have to be able to work from the return exactly as it looked when if was filed originally----or you will have a big mess.  Put it back to its original condition and sit tight for a month or two until you can amend the right way.

The second one filed rejected because you had already filed the first time. It does not affect your ability to amend.

 

Make sure that your original return is unchanged and then you can re-enter it to make the desired changes in the amendment.

Both the original, and first amendment' had bad PIN #'s.  The IRS sent a text message with a third set of PINs.

Sadly during this process Turbo Tax overwrote the original data file with the each new amended return - the Software cannot find the original filling data.

 

Is the only "fix" mailing hardcopy of this second amendment?
