I efiled the federal return without problems, i.e., they "accepted" it. No idea if there were going to be problems later, but I'm in a "bomb-proof" situation and ready to fight.
The first time I filed an amended state return there were no problems. Today the second amended return was initially rejected. We initially underpaid NC and they charged us interest. The second amended return actually was in our favor, but the re-computed return said we'd paid $2 much interest and negative numbers there are rejected. I couldn't figure out how to do it right, so I just zeroed out the number. That change passed the automatic screening process. If someone figures out that things don't add up, I'll just insist
hat they owe me two bucks. I'm retired and don't have anything better to do with my time.
