I'm having problems creating an amended return for 2022. The instructions to amend a 2022 return that was already filed do not match the desktop software.
Here are the instructions. (IMAGE 1)
When I open the 2022 software, I have these choices:
IF I go down the path to "Amend a return after it was filed and accepted by the IRS", it asks for the changes and collects information, but it never puts in the original 2022 return information. There is no place I can find to load the original return. I get a seemingly brain-dead document that looks like below. No name or information. No numbers for the original filed year. And I think the calculations must be wrong, because it assumes I'm in a 0 income tax bracket.
IF I select "Open a different return", I can load my 2022 tax return, but there there is no option that I can find to amend it as the instructions say. (See below).
So what is it I'm supposed to do? What is it I'm not doing right?
(I'm about ready to give up and just do it by hand.)
