The 2nd original return will be erased by this one.  You should include the refund that was received on the second return in the amount already received on line 18 of the 1040X.  That will subtract it from the new refund amount since you already got it.   @Zimers 

For this purpose, it is not much of a distinction for my purposes. Even worse, perhaps. If they're a vendor, just give them orders to stop doing this or stop doing business with them.  Since they are making it  look like TurboTax is doing this.

You should contact the company that issued the form and get the correct number from them.  If the original form was issued with the incorrect number, you should also request for them to correct the form.     @unique1911 

Your state rejected due to the year, owner(s), owner type, property address, assessed land and improvement value and acres (when more than one) must be provided. If entries are from a personal property tax bill with no assessed land value, the land value may be zero but Homestead Note #14 must be checked.   Please review the reason for the reject. If necessary, make the appropriate change and re-submit this return electronically. However, if the reject continues, you may want to file this return via U.S. Mail. To file your state return, print it and mail to the appropriate taxing authority.

Why do you think you need to update your account?    If you filed a joint return---and did so correctly----then you and your spouse prepare ONE tax return with all of your combined information on that one Form 1040.  There is no reason for you to enter your information again into your own account.    Do you have the mistaken idea that you each file a joint return?   What did you enter on the first return?

It's not clear what you are trying to do. When you file as married filing jointly you file one tax return for the two of you together, from one TurboTax Online account. All of the tax information for both of you is in that one account. If you have another TurboTax account for some reason, besides the account that you used to file jointly, there is no reason to enter any information in the other account. It is not being used.  

"I took distributions from a 401(k) and a 403(b) in order to satisfy RMD. These distributions were reported on the same 1099-R. "   It's improper for the payer to report on a single Form 1099-R distributions from different accounts.  Perhaps what you received is a single sheet on which is printed two separate Forms 1099-R, each of which must be entered into TurboTax separately.  If the sheet separately lists the gross amount distributed from each account, this suggests that you have received two Forms 1099-R printed on a single sheet.

@riadassi    Having a Schedule C does not prevent you from claiming the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. The net self-employment income on Schedule C can be foreign earned income that is eligible for the exclusion. Did you go through the "Foreign Earned Income and Exclusion" topic in TurboTax after you completed the Schedule C? You have to go through that topic in order to exclude the foreign earned income. The exclusion will appear on Schedule 1 line 8d. Did you look at Schedule 1 to see if the exclusion is there? Are you using TurboTax Online or the desktop TurboTax software? Which edition are you using (Basic, Deluxe, etc.)?
