Hi and thank you for your comment! I was trying to file it for 2023 and yes it says the e-file is available from 2/15. I'm also glad to hear that it won't mess up the system. However I'm a little confused on that note about not being able to amend 2023 until the IRS/state has processed the original return... does this mean I have to pay the tax due or get the first refund to be able to process the amends?
What happened is that I live and work in different states. This year I forgot to file for a non-resident return and didn't claim the credits for the double-taxed situation, resulting in me owning estimated taxes to my resident state. So I was planning to mail an amended tax return to my resident state, but paper files usually take at least 12 weeks to process and only 3-4 weeks for e-files.
Does this mean I'll have to pay whatever I owe to my resident state first to process the change? Even if the payment is due in April? Sorry about the long paragraphs. First time making mistakes and god it's so complicated to fix it!
