topic I am NOT filing an amended Nebraska return. in State tax filing

I am NOT filing an amended Nebraska return.

Nebraska State Return says, "You're amending a tax return for the year [this part is blank]. The program calculations and forms you are using are for the year 2025. You should use the program to do your amended return since the calculations and forms for each year are unique. If you use this program to amend your return, review the calculations and forms for the year you're amending."

I have NOT requested an amendment. I have deleted the state form and started over again, carefully ensuring that I do NOT request amending a tax form and get the same result. Clearly, this is a coding error. In the meantime I cannot file my state taxes.

I am currently on hold with telephone support. Estimated wait time is 45 minutes.

If the year is blank, it often indicates the form was added incorrectly or there is a glitch with the browser. Using a different browser or clearing your cache may also solve the issue.

Steps to Fix "Amended" State Error:

Delete the Amendment Form (Most Reliable):
1. Click on Tax Tools in the left menu.
2. Select Tools.
3. Choose Delete a form.
4. Search for any forms related to the amendment (e.g., Form 1040-X, state-specific amend forms like IT-201-X) and delete them.

"Un-amend" in the State Section:
1. Go back into the State return section.
2. Look for the screen asking "Let's Amend Your State Taxes".
3. Ensure you answer "No" to amending the return if you are filing for the first time.

Clear & Start Over: If you haven't paid or filed, you can use the "Clear & Start Over" option in the Tax Tools menu to reset the return.

Thank you for your reply! I had already done all of the steps you listed and still received the message that I was filling out an amended return for the year nothing. I was able to use form view to complete the return.
