Hello!
My husband and I received unemployment compensation in 2020. However, we filed our tax returns for Federal and States (California & Kansas) in early February before we knew about the unemployment tax credit.
The IRS has now amended and applied the unemployment tax credits to our 2020 Federal Tax return and we have received the adjusted refund check from the IRS.
Now that we know our Federal Return has been corrected, we would like to submit amended state returns (for California and Kansas) that reflect the unemployment tax credits for both my husband and myself. However, I haven't been able to figure out how to obtain a copy of our amended 2020 Federal Return from the IRS so that I can see the new AGI that they're now showing after the tax credit was applied. My understanding is that the amendments I submit to both states must reflect the same AGI that would now be on our corrected Federal return. (BTW....adding the tax credit would have been the only change made to our 2020 federal return. )
So, my question.....
Without access to our amended Federal return, can we simply amend both of our state returns (CA & KS) through our Turbo Tax account by adding our unemployment tax credit amount to those two state returns, printing them out and sending the amended returns to the individual states for processing?
Thanks for your help!
Thank you!
