Is there a way in TT to amend a Fed return without going through the state return information?

Hi TT Community,

I need to file 1040X for 2018 and 2019, but TurboTax is requiring me to go through the state income tax section (apparently), which I do not use. (My state has very simple tax returns.)

Can anyone suggest how to avoid working through the multiple TT pages for the state return and simply complete the 1040X and print it?

Thank you,

When you are in the TurboTax Amend software, you can select the Federal tab at the top and it will take you out of the state interview.

You can then select the Other Tax Situations tab and choose Amend a Return to begin amending your Federal tax return.

Please indicate where "Federal" can be clicked on. I do not see it on this page. I recall that in prior years, such a link existed, but I do not see it in TT's updated online software, per the below.

Thank you

I apologize. Log out of your return and follow these instructions:

Sign in to TurboTax.
Scroll down to Your tax return & documents (you may need to select Show), select 2019 and then Amend (change) return.

This should take you to the Federal beginning.
