Amending return, but names out of order
Our accountant filed a return, but we had asked him not to, since we were waiting for information. But we let him go, and when we did, evidently he filed the return, wife info primary, husband info secondary. We did not know he filed the incomplete return. When I did the taxes using TurboTax, I submitted with husband info primary, wife info secondary. Both were "Accepted" by the IRS. However, the accountant's with the missing info (and a whole lot of manual paperwork), was accepted first, and my understanding is that this takes precedence. Can I now amend my TurboTax return for 2023, and that will now take precedence? Even if the names are out of order? Not sure what to do, but having the ex-accountant file an amendment is the least possible and desireable.
