I need to amend my state return

1. Sign in to your TurboTax account if you're not already signed in.
2. On the home screen, locate the Your tax returns & documents section and select Amend (change) return.
3. Select Continue to amend if any of the situations or information on the screen applies.
4. Select the amendment reason(s) and select Continue.
5. Continue through until you reach the screen, Tell us which 2020 return(s) you want to amend and select 20XX state. (Note: If you only need to amend a state return, only select state for the tax year you are amending)
6. Finish amending the return.

Keep in mind: When you start amending, it's normal and expected for your refund meter to reset to $0. We'll calculate any additional refund or taxes owed when you're finished amending. This amount, if any, is separate from the amount on your originally filed return.

1. Open your return in the TurboTax Desktop software. 
2. On the home screen of TurboTax Desktop, go to Need to File an Amended Return? and select Amend a Filed return. 
3. Select Continue on the We’ll help you change (amend) your return screen. 
4. Select Yes, I’ve already filed my return.
5. Choose the option that best applies when asked, Tell us a little more about your amend situation. (For the 2020 tax year, choose I need to amend my 2020 return).
6. On the next screen, select Continue to amend. 
7. Select Update next to State Return and finish the amendment.

The steps above will generate a 1040-X (Amended Return) for the state you are amending.
