Get your taxes done using TurboTax
2023 is now a past year. A past year amended return can only be filed by mail. You will need to print it, sign and date it in ink, and mail it.
Only certain paid tax pros using professional tax software can e-file past year amended returns. You cannot e-file an amended return that you prepared yourself using TurboTax. Your 1040X must be printed, signed and dated in ink, and then you need to mail it in. Use a mailing service like certified mail so you will know the IRS received it, since you will have a long wait for it to be processed.
Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take four months or more for the IRS to process an amended return.
