Update:
I received both my Federal and State refunds and it has been more than a week now. But for some reason TurboTax is still showing the status as 'Accepted' without any signs of me getting the refund. But anyways, as suggested above, I started the process to amend but then TurboTax is showing a message "If you put money into a retirement account, such as a 401(k), without taking any money out, you don't need to go through this area." (Screenshot attached to the original post) Thoroughly confused!
Questions:
1. This message is contradicting with the suggestions above. I also found some other responses in the same tone (<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="

🙂2. If the answer above is to file the amendment, when? Do I have to further wait till the TurboTax status changes to something else? When I start the amendment process now, it is resetting the return to zero, which is not correct since I already got the refund. Basically, I don't want the TurboTax tax records to be modified under the assumption that I didn't get the refund.
Thanks for your help!
