See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-change-correct-return-a...

 

Do not expect quick results from amending---it takes 4 to 6 months for the IRS to process it.

 

Use a mailing service like certified mail so you will know the IRS received it, since you will have a long wait for it to be processed.
