rejected efile 1040x
Hello
My original return was e-filed accepted and approved. The next day I noticed that I claimed a credit twice by mistake. I filled out the form 1040x and e-filed it. My 1040x reduced my refund for the tax associated with double credit claim. On the 1040x under amount due I put in the additional tax owed, and under refund I put in the new amount to be refunded. I received a rejection because I put an amount in for tax due and also an amount for a refund. The said if you a claiming a refund the tax owed should by zero. I corrected the mistake and tried to re e-file the amended return and the program would not allow it to be e-field. As a result of all this I now have to mail my new amended. I followed the instructions, and I don't understand why I still can't e-file. Very frustrating.
