Why not just go ahead and file your 2020 taxes unless something from 2019 needs to rollover to 2020. Amended returns take longer to process by the IRS typically.
Here is how to amend using TurboTax for Free:
- Sign in to TurboTax.
- Scroll down to Your tax return & documents (you may need to select Show), select 2019 and then Amend (change) return.
- If you only see the option to amend 2018 or earlier, it's because you can't amend an unfiled 2019 return. Instead, just select Pick up where you left off, make your changes, and disregard the rest of these instructions.
- Select Amend using TurboTax Online.
- Carefully follow the instructions. Don't worry if your refund changes to $0. This is normal on amended returns.
- You can e-file your 2019 amended federal tax return, but most states require amendments to be printed and filed by mail.
- If e-filing, you’ll review, sign and transmit your federal return. If not, we'll give you instructions to print and mail your amended return.
