Trying to filed 2024 amended return and TurboTax Desktop will not let me e-file even though I've efiled regular return ?

It will let me efile NY amended return. Is there a way to efile federal amended return ?

You might first have to tell the program it was filed. If you efiled you have to check the filing status inside the program. Open your return and go up to menu item

File > Electronic Filing > Check Electronic Filing Status

 

Then save your return with the status. Go to File-Save. Oh and be sure to save your original return with another name so the amended return doesn't overwrite it and you can start over if it gets messed up.
