Sounds like you messed up if you do not have a 1040X.    If you amended correctly you would have a Form 1040X to submit to the IRS.   Did you just go into the software and start changing things on your original tax return?  If you did that, put them back to the way they were originally.    In order to amend a 2022 return, you need to use the desktop download software on a full PC or Mac.   To amend a return that you already filed, you have to go to Other Tax Situations>Other Tax Forms>Amend a Return     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-change-correct-return-already-filed/L4VjJ9BA2_US_en_US?uid=m76mq6z2    Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take four months or more for the IRS to process an amended return.     You can watch for information here:

You cannot change the tax year.   The current online program is for 2025 only.   Only a 2025 return can be prepared online and only a 2025 return can be e-filed.   Online preparation and e-filing for 2022, 2023, and  2024 is permanently closed. Note:  The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac.  It cannot be used on a mobile device.   To file a return for a prior tax year  If you need to prepare a return for 2022, 2023, or 2024  you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign,  and mail the return(s) https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/ You may also want to explore purchasing the software from various retailers such as Amazon, Costco, Best Buy, Walmart, Sam’s, etc.   Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/state-taxes/contact-state-department-revenue/L9qVToi02_US_en_US?uid=m6e06um0   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 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.         You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.    https://myturbotax.intuit.com/   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.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/01/27010     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/save-2021-turbotax-online-return-pdf/L8dHfRkpT_US_en_US?uid=m5y4ch1y   Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/many-intuit-accounts-turbotax/L9aVfKS1Z_US_en_US?uid=ll5g6zcx Account Recovery     Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.     hhttps://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/find-last-year-tax-data-file-tax-file-computer/L0XJvPaJr_US_en_US?uid=m6gufxei     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/data-systems/find-tax-data-file-mac/L4VNGm33S_US_en_US?uid=m6guhab0 You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30, an actual copy of your tax return. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf       SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !

It is not clear what you are trying to do.   The state software for 2025 is not ready for use yet, so no one can check to see if you owe the state for 2025 yet.  You do not say what you have uploaded into the software, nor do you say what exactly you paid for.   You do not appear to be posting your question from online "Live" software that provides help from a tax expert for a 2025 return.   If in fact, you have paid for/chosen to use online Live for 2025, contact your expert.   You can arrange for the Live help you are paying the extra fee for with your questions from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific time. https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/product-setup/connect-tax-expert-turbotax-live/L73wOZD5D_US_en_US?uid=m8zw1pbb

Is NC saying that you owe tax due for 2019?  Your only proof that you paid would be your own bank or credit card records.   What does it say in your online TurboTax account for 2019?  Does it show that a 2019 return was e-filed and accepted?   Or was the state return rejected?   If you find that the return was not ever filed, the only way to file it now is by mail.   You will need to print it, sign and date it in ink, and mail it to the state.    

The current 2025 program does not include social security as one of the income options to select. At the top of the list of incomes it says that social security is not transferable from the previous year so it is not included in the list. Interestingly, my 2024 social security data was transferred properly?  I think there is a glitch in the program. Please advise.

You don't have to be concerned with the federal side of this because interest from obligations of the federal government is fully taxable by the federal government.   Re the State of Georgia, interest from federal government securities are exempt from state taxation but you may have to enter that in the State section of the program. You should also note that some states make a distinction (or have made one in the past) between dividends paid out of a mutual fund and interest paid directly from the federal government (e.g., where you would directly own U.S. Treasuries).

Since it was paid in 2025 then it is a valid medical expense to be entered as an itemized deduction on the 2025 Schedule A.  There is no need to designate this payment as for 2026 Medicare premium.   Health care insurance premiums, including dental and vision insurance premiums, and other medical expenses that you paid with out of pocket funds and were not reimbursed are an eligible medical expense that you can deduct using Schedule A for itemized deductions. However, only your total medical expenses that are greater than 7.5% of your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) can be deducted. Your total itemized deductions reported on Form 1040 Schedule A must be greater than the standard deduction for your filing status to have any tax benefit.
