Do I amend my 2019 return using TurboTax 2019 or TurboTax 2020?

 

I opened TurboTax 2019 and clicked the Amend a Filed Return button.  Adding the 2020 form 1099-R, I entered distribution code P for box 7.  However the drop down list states code P is for Return of contribution taxable in 2018.  But that's not correct.

 

I over contributed in 2019.  When I entered the 2020 form 1099-R in my 2020 taxes.  The drop down list for distribution code P accurately lists the amount is for Return of contribution taxable in 2019.

 

Should I amend my 2019 return using TurboTax 2020?  Possibly the drop down list will properly show distribution code P is for a return taxable in year 2019.

 

Sorry for the confusion.
