Amendment - Stuck in step 2

ajaydarez — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 05:23:27 GMT

I forgot to add real estate depreciation to my tax filing - so I amended my state and federal returns.
It was all good - I am getting some money refunded.

But I cannot progress beyond this screen: "Just two more steps and we'll file your amended returns"

I've added direct deposit accounts for state and federal multiple times. I've tried changing the bank accounts. It tells me that it is all good, shows me a confirmation, but brings me back to this screen with step 2 still being incomplete.

Any thoughts on the issue here?

Did this ever get resolved? I'm having the same issue.

I changed both methods to check to get it to work. It sucks but that is the only way I found

If this is for any other tax year other then the current 2022 return then your only option in step 2 is to choose to mail in the return ... they cannot be efiled thru the TT system.

It worked, thank you. Out of curiosity, did you ever receive your check? Turbotax wanted me to mail in a 1040-V to pay the federal government; however, I had already paid them directly during the original submission. Now the federal government owes me a check.

@alekvt Ignore any 1040V voucher that prints out and the new 1040. Those are what your return would have been if you had not needed to amend.

Go by the actual 1040X. Line 18 should be your original refund amount and line 21 should be your additional refund. If you paid on your original return it will be on line 16. If there is an amount owed with the amendment, it will be on line 20.

You are the best! That's the exact info I needed.
