Sorry for the long post. I used Turbotax Online premium to file for Federal and AZ. After efiling I noticed that my AZ return needed a correction.

AZ allows AGI reduction for any longterm Capital Gain by 25% provided gain occured after 2011. I had loss of 6000. On screen it asked me question out of -$6000 how much Gain/Loss incurred after 2011. I input $6000 instead of $-6000. Thsi created AGI reduction by $1500 which was my error and Turbotax did not catch that I was subtracting loss as Gain. I amended my AZ return but it created new 1040X all the amounts are same and it should be since this was only state change.This I tried multiple times... and I now ended up still 1040X in my print centre. My 140 state return now have new correct amount which is wrong since it should have incorrect amount and a correct 140X for state. My question is how do I remove 1040X as I did not amend anything for federal and how do I correct 140 to original 140 and leave 140X as it is? Sorry for all the confusion. Thanks in advance.

To clear the federal amendment and start only the Arizona amendment: 

 

  • Go to Tax Tools 
  • Clear & Start Over (if you haven’t paid) or 
  • Delete Form 1040-X in Forms mode. 

 

Then you can use these steps to amend your state tax return only.
