2020 Amendment - not allowing me to e-file
I'm filing a 2020 fed and state amendment (in 2023, yeah, yeah...). I've completed everything, and as I understand it, Turbotax makes it possible to e-file (at least fed).
I'm on the page "How Do You Want To Pay Your Federal Taxes" and it shows the correct amount that I owe based on my amendment.
All of my bank and personal info is pre-populated from my previously submitted return, so I've advanced through the next 4 pages in Turbotax to the "Transmit Your Returns" page. This is where I hit a snag.
I hit "Transmit Returns Now" (orange button), and the next page opens: "We Need To Make One More Check".
I hit "Continue", and the next page tells me that my signature date is 3/2/23, but must be between 1/1/20-12/31/20.
I hit "Continue", and the next page tells me that my payment date (bank wire) must be between 2/12/21 and 5/17/21. It also shows a new/different payment amount which is neither the amount I actually owe, nor the amount I originally owed (I actually got a refund originally).
Not sure what the software is doing here. It's as if it doesn't realize I'm trying to e-file an amended return, but when I started the e-file process for this amendment, the confirmation on screen did say that it was about to file my amended return. Please help.
