So the wages line was basically doubled. On your W-2 what did it say under State Wages Box 16? Was that entered properly into TurboTax? If so that may be picked up by your state and corrected.
Did you file it that way?
If so yes, you will have to amend if your state does not find and correct the error. Wait until your tax returns have processed before amending.
If you used TurboTax Online, simply log in to your account and select “Amend a return that was filed and accepted.” If you used our CD/download product, sign back into your return and select “Amend a filed return.” You must file a separate Form 1040-X for each tax return you are amending.
You generally must file an amended return within three years of the date you filed the original return or within two years after the date you paid the tax, whichever is later if you are attempting to get a refund.
Can I use tax preparation software to amend my return?
Yes. TurboTax walks you step-by-step through amending your federal income tax return.
