filing a 1040 x

I need to file an amended return for tax year 2022. I am using turbo tax premier for my original return. I don't see the 1040x listed anywhere. Where do I get it and how do I file it using my turbo tax????

See the following FAQ for instructions to amend your tax return. (It says "prior year" but it also works for 2022.)

How do I amend my federal tax return for a prior year?

If you need further help, please tell us whether you are using TurboTax Online or the CD/Download TurboTax software.

FIRST...Open and Save-As a copy of your original tax file to a second, differently-named file...like..."2022_Original_..." to be used to see what you originally filed at any time later.

Then go back to the Home-opening page that you see when you first start up and look for the "Amend a Filed Return" button lower on that opening page. When you click on that you can then select what file you are going to amend, and the amendment process is started, and the 1040x will be initiated.
