Trying to amend state return for 2021

I'm trying to amend my 2021 state return, opened desktop software for 2021, updated software and clicked on amend a return, clicked on state return and clicked up update and it says let's work on state return - however it does not pull up my already filed federal or state return info or ask me what I need to update- it's just a blank file and wants me to start over with no info coming over from federal return that is needed or previously filed state return.  What am I doing incorrectly?

Trying to amend state return for 2021

Make sure you are following these guidelines when 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 

Select your product below and follow the instructions.
