Where should I mail my amended form 1040-X and payment 1040-V

Using Turbo Tax software, I e-filed my 2021 taxes in North Carolina and were accepted.  I had to amend using 1040-X form and I have a payment due (1040-V).  The amended return for both Federal and State were e-filed according to Turbo Tax recommendation.  The amended Federal Tax return was accepted.  The Turbo Tax's instruction sheet, with the logo on the top right, says to mail the return and payments to "Department of Treasury IRS Kansas City, MO 64999".  On the other hand, form 1040-V says "if you live in NC, use this address IRS P.O. Box 1214 Charlotte, NC 28201".   1- Should 1040-X, the new 1040, and 1040-V payment voucher with the payment check be mailed together?

2- Which mailing address should I use, Kansas City, MO or Charlotte, NC?

Thanks in advance for clearing the confusion that I have from those printed instructions.

Since your return was electronically filed and you are only sending Form 1040-V with your payment, use the Charlotte, NC address that is printed on Form 1040-V.

 

The Kansas City, MO address is for mailing the actual Form 1040-X return and the payment at the same time.

No, you do not need to mail the 1040-X since this was received by the IRS when you e-filed the amended return.

 

Payment and the 1040-V will need to be mailed to the address on the voucher.

Thanks for your reply and explanation. Do I still need to mail form 1040-X and the updated Form 1040 to Charlotte with the payment and voucher or should I mail them separate to the Kansas City MO? Or I don’t need to send any updated form since they received them electronically?

When filing by mail,

do not include your old 1040 nor your revised 1040 because the Form 1040-X reflects any changes there and becomes your new tax return.
