After you file
Appreciate your help. I found this tread because I was unable to e-file my 2021 1040X. I was on the phone with Turbotax for an hour without getting a resolution. I was told it may be not working because Turbotax doesn't support e-filing amended returns for my state. I removed my state and was still unable to e-file my 2021 1040X. Also, when you google about whether Turbotax e-files amended returns, it shows yes and if you google what states does Turbotax e-file state returns, it will list those states. Also, in the Turbotax software, when it gets to filing, there is a notice that says, "New as of August 2020! You may be eligible to electronically file your amended return. If you'd like to file electronically, click on the "File" tab above and proceed." I've done this and and then get the message that e-filing season has closed for 2022. It is treating the return as if I'm trying to file the original return and not a 1040X.
If Turbotax truly does not offer e-filing for a 1040X, why does it say it does in the software and when googling it and when talking with support staff on the phone? There is a definite disconnect somewhere.
I find it hard to believe that Turbotax doesn't, or isn't able to, offer this service. I think there is a programming glitch that is keeping it from working. I get that just because the IRS says you can e-file a 1040X, doesn't mean that you can do it through Turbotax, but when everything about Turbotax says you can, you think you'd be able to.
