After you file

You can prepare your 2019 amended return and e-file it in TurboTax, but you need to wait until your original return has been processed. If you will be receiving a refund from the original return, wait until you receive it before you prepare your amended return.

 

The amended federal return is a form 1040-X. It is a two page form that will list your original tax numbers, the numbers you are changing and the new adjusted amounts. TurboTax will also prepare a state amended return if necessary, based on the information you enter.

 

You will see an option to prepare an amended return on your home page in TurboTax. It may not be available at this time, however, as it is early in the tax preparation season.
