I need to clarify what you are asking so that I can answer properly. Did your original tax return get accepted when you e-filed? If it rejected, you would not need to do an amendment, you would correct whatever is wrong and then re-file. An amendment does have to be mailed, but is not necessary if the original return wasn't accepted. Please let me know if you need additional assistance.

Aw shoot. Wish i had of known this. Yes my original return was rejected, not accepted. And TT' s response emails firmly indicated that i needed to file amended return. Furthermore, TT charged me additional funds to correct. So wat do i do now? Just yesterday i got another " rejected" email. When i correct it it says i cant efile

Is it possible that you went in and made changes to your original return and then when you couldn't e-file, you printed the return and mailed it in? What is the Form number in the corner of your tax form? An amended return is 1040X.

Yes, I checked with my manager to ensure my instructions were correct. It was agreed that even though you mailed the 1040X, that without the original tax return, the 1040X would not make sense to the IRS, they need the original return. And that is what you are working on and will send in. They will most likely hold the 1040X and send out a letter to ask for more info and by that time, you will have submitted your original tax return.

First, you will need to delete the amended return. Even though you mailed it to the IRS, it will not be correct without the original return. The IRS needs your original return.

Follow the steps in this FAQ to delete the amended return:
