what is the correct sequence to amend a return if I havent filed my state return yet?
Here's my situation
- just efiled my 2022 federal after getting an extension.
- discovered errors in my 2021 returns while preparing the state return
Now I need to amend my federal and state 2021 returns. Federal has to be mailed, state can be efiled (I think) amendments. When you efile, it takes about a month to get processed, when you mail it takes about 3 months.
Here's my thinking
1. Mail 2021 amended federal return now.
2. Efile amended 2021 state return now.
3. Wait a month, then mail 2022 state return before Oct 15 deadline.
4. Wait 3 months until Dec 2023 and efile 2022 federal return amendment.
Is this a good sequence to allow for processing of returns?
