After you file

Hey TurboTax, what is the status on being able to e-file the 1040-X?  A couple weeks ago (02/06/21) when I tried I got this message (I use desktop version Turbotax Premier):

 

"Amended Returns Can't be E-Filed.  The IRS doesn't allow amended returns to be e-filed.  Just select Continue, print your amended federal return (Form 1040X), and send it to the address provided in the filing instructions"

 

So I came online and found this thread, and decided I would try again after Feb 12th as noted.

 

Tried e-filing in TurboTax today and get this message:

 

"E-filing is Closed for the Season, You Can File by Mail.  You can still file this return, but you'll need to walk through printing and filing by mail.  TurboTax e-filing is closed for the tax season on October 15, 2020."

 

If the IRS is accepting e-filing of the 1040X, then why can't we e-file it through your software?  Or can we and I just don't know how to do it?

 


TurboTax closed e-filing of all 2019 tax returns after October 2020.  You will have to print and mail the 2019 amended tax return.
