To do the amended return, both TurboTax Online and TurboTax Desktop will work. You would need the Deluxe version of either program to complete your return. As it was mentioned in the previous posts by CatinaT1 and xmasbaby0, it will be a lengthy process. You will have to redo your original return, compare it to your original return, and then do the amendment.
- You would need to redo your return, and create a "mock return." You will need all the documents, like W2 Forms and any 1099 Forms that were used to prepare your return originally.
- After you are done, you will need to review your return and make sure that all the information matches your original return. It might be good to print the return and check everything line to line.
- Once all is correct, then you have to tell the program that you are filing a paper return. You will have to "file" the return in the system so that it will let you file the amended return.
- Once all that is done, then you can file the amended return.
- On the home screen, scroll down to Your tax returns & documents
- Select the year and Amend (change) return
- Follow the steps in the program, when you are amending you only need to change what you need and leave everything else the same.
- The amended return will have to be mailed, and when you print your return a page with instructions will print that will guide you on how to assemble and where to mail your return.
Feel free to contact us again if you have additional questions.
