In order to amend a return with TurboTax, you must have created "AND FILED" the original return with TurboTax. What you do, is use TurboTax to recreate the original return as filed. Then select the option to "print and mail" the return. Then actually print the return. This is the only way to "trick" the program into believing you actually filed the original return with TurboTax.
After you print it, compare the return you prepared with TurboTax, with the return filed by your CPA. Every single line (no exceptions) mutch match exactly. If they do not match, then either you or the CPA did something wrong. You can not amend until the TurboTax return "exactly" matches your CPA filed return. Otherwise, you will create a never-ending nightmare for yourself with the IRS, from which you will never awaken.
