Illinois.
The reason why I'm asking for such specific help is only because I've been staring at the recommendations in this thread and just cannot figure out the order in which to do these steps. (I've literally got a headache a number of times trying.) I simply not understand how to practically accomplish the desired goal.
So, relative to these 6 steps:
- Update federal return
- Complete state return
- Save state return as PDF, print, and mail it
- Without saving, close TT
- Reopen TT, begin amended federal return, reentering all changes. Save as PDF, print, and mail.
- Close and save TT file
where would you insert the red step:

But, since you didn't save the actual filed state return (except as a pdf), you will have go go thru the state program and amend it too. That should restore your state data, to what you file.
