When I try to amend my state return, Turbotax does not give me the option to select state return. It goes straight into amending the federal return. How to amend state?

How do you amend only the state return?

Thank you.  Step 5 of the online version does not give me the option to select state.  It goes straight into the federal.

Since you have to be using the TurboTax desktop editions to amend a tax return, all you need to do is click on State Taxes and then the amend option for the state should be in the section labeled Other Situations.
