After you file

Hello,

Thank you for your help.  What's happening doesn't quite match your list:

1.  I open Turbotax 2021 Premier for Mac.

2. On the home screen, under "Manage Your Returns", I see the option "Amend a return (make changes) after it was filed and accepted by the IRS".  I click on that.

3.  Your next step says "select the return you wish to amend then, Continue."  The current screen says "We'll help you change (amend) your return" and has 3 bubbles containing "Step 1", "Step 2", and "Step 3".  There is nothing to click on to select the return I want to amend.  I click continue anyway.

4. On the next screen I click "Yes, I've already filed my return." and "I need to amend my 2021 return" and "Continue."

5.  On the next screen, since I need to add a 1099-DIV, I click on the "update" button next to wages and income.

6.  The next screen is titled "Let's get your W-2 info".  This is where I'm confused.  I don't need to change my W-2, and also I've already entered all my W-2 information in my original return.  Why is it asking me to re-enter it?  I never asks me to select the file containing my original return, so I'm confused about that, too.  Do I just re-enter my W-2 and keep going?  Will I have to re-enter all my wages and income info?

 

I appreciate any guidance you can give.
