Got it, no e-file of amended return, even though TT says NY must e-file and I was able to e-file an amended NY return with TT in 2022. On the "Filing Instructions for your 2022 New York Amended Tax Return" from TT, it clearly says: "Do not mail a paper copy of your tax return. Since you filed electronically, the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance already has your return."  And when I print "tax forms for filing" for my amended 2024 return, TT includes updated versions of the original 1040 and IT-201 for NY, based on the amended forms. I believe I also included these with my amended 2022 filings too. I will mail the amended 1040 but why did TT allow an e-file of IT-201X in 2022 but won't allow it for 2024? I can guess that forcing me to change the filing date from yesterday to a date in 2025 closed the e-filing door on November 15, 2025, as TT says but why force me to backdate in the first place?  This is not a glitch in the TT software? And, since I submitted updated originals of the 1040 and IT-201 for 2022, shouldn't I do the same for 2024? Any reason not to? Please advise on these two issues. Thanks

 You will be able to access the 2024 return you started by using the exact same account and user ID that you used when you started it.   But you can no longer use online software for any further changes.       Start a 2025  return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.   Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2024  returns is now permanently closed.    Now it is too late to use online software or to e-file. If you have any changes/corrections at all to make to your 2024 return, you now have to complete it using desktop software, which you must download to a full PC or Mac  (not to a mobile device).Then you need to print, sign and mail it.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/printers-printing/finish-prior-year-return-started-turbotax-online/L9Oe4M90A_US_en_US?uid=m68tffpe   If you already paid for your online software you can ask customer support for a download of the desktop software.   They are available from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific time Monday - Friday   https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899263-what-is-the-turbotax-phone-number     If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late.  If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe.  Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.     When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.   Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.

Have you gone all the way through the Deductions and Credits section yet?   Go all the way through that section and then view your tax return and look at Schedule 1-A, specifically see Part lV.   You should see the deduction amount on Line 30 of Schedule 1A, which flows to your tax return Form 1040, Line 13b.    

Did you enter a qualifying dependent?   Am I Head of Household?   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-filing-status/qualify-head-household-2021/L0NxUtVc2_US_en_US?uid=m5x19jkx What is a "qualifying person" for Head of Household?   If you qualify as Head of Household, when you enter your marital status (single or married filing separately) into MyInfo, and then enter your qualifying dependent, TurboTax will offer HOH as your filing status.  

For what its worth, I just spent 45 minutes with customer service trying to get an answer to this issue and the bottom line is they don't know.  The tec rep I spoke with did some research on the developers help tickets and didn't see anything related to 1099-R issues.  Bottom line from her was to wait until the end of January and see if things are done.  I suggested to her to have someone come on this community board to address this issue as I am not the only one with the problem.  I got the impression, that this was first heard so I don't know what to say. Wow.

Given the unknowns, I would operate under the assumption that they shall and you will have to re-enter the info.  Probably not huge deal, since you should be going back in there anyway, after the 1099 Form entries to make sure nothing changed with the upgrade.  An hour or two of data re-entry at the most?  FWIW.
