State tax filing

If you already filed your return you need to amend it to make any changes. 

You should report the state taxes withheld on your 1099-R on the federal return and the information will flow to your state return. 

When you amend, if the changes does not affect your federal return, you will only need to send the amended state return.

 

 Wait until the IRS either accepts or rejects your return.

If the IRS rejects your return, you can make the changes and re-submit your return.

If the IRS accepts your return, you have to wait until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund. Then you can prepare an amended tax return and mail it in. 

  1. In TurboTax, scroll down to Your tax returns & documents. Select Show and then select Amend (change) return, and then Amend using TurboTax Online. (If you don't see Your tax returns & documents, select Tax Home on the left.)
  2. Select the reason you’re amending and follow the instructions

For cancelling or changing the state tax payment you will need to go to your state department of revenue website.
