When will the amend page be ready to use ?

I updated my TT 2025, clicked on "Amend a Filed Return" for my federal return. I already know it's been accepted by the IRS since last week. According to the support page, when you do that the tax refund amount is supposed to go to $0, but mine doesn't. After I added a couple of extra 1099 forms, the tax owed updated as expected but on top of the previous owed amount*. Also the forms view doesn't show the 1040-X. I think this isn't working yet.

* I e-Filed with payment to IRS on 4/1/26, not immediately.

First, you need to wait until the initial return is completely processed.  The amended section of the software will not be updated until the expected date of March 4.

 

If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been filed and accepted by the taxing agency, 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 to be corrected. 
  • 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

Is my issue that since I put my deduction date at 4/1/2026, I have to wait until then until I file an amended return? Meaning if I'd had immediately paid my owed to IRS amount, I'd be able to e-FIle the 1040X on March 4th?

I will never use TurboTax again

@patrickashley279 The Form 1040-X for amending a 2025 federal tax return is estimated to be available in TurboTax on 03/04/2026

 

Not until the IRS updates the Form 1040-X instructions for tax year 2025 can TurboTax provide a 2025 Form 1040-X.

Current IRS Form 1040-X instructions are for tax year 2024 - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1040x.pdf

IRS Draft Form 1040--X instructions for tax year 2025 - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-dft/i1040gi--dft.pdf

 

See other tax preparation software vendors.
