Amending North Carolina D-400 for unpaid sales tax

[haberdashed]

I am amending my North Carolina D-400 form to account for items that I did not realize I paid no Sales Tax on. I had expected the process to be the same as when filing them at first (i.e. go through each section and Turbotax handled inputting them for me), however now I have been presented with the D-400 in full.

My question is, is it possible to amend the D-400 using the same process? Or if I have to manually edit the D-400, what do I need to do for lines 22-28? Or do I only need to edit lines 18 and 19? Additionally, will TurboTax allow me to pay the additional tax due through the app?

When you go through the amend return routine in TurboTax, you should be able to work through the state program the same way you did when you originally prepared it.

It's not clear to me how you are actually preparing the Amended NC tax return.

You are supposed to "start" with tax return you originally filed in the software (without the sales/Use tax entries) ....then hit the "Amend" selection and proceed to enter/change whatever needs to be changed in the regular interview.

The tax software then prepares a new D-400, with the "Amended Return" box checked in the upper-center of the form, and all the old numbers, plus any changed ones will be shown on the whole form in the appropriate lines.

________________________________

Any additional taxes due are not paid thru the "app" in any way in this situation, since the NC amended forms have to be mailed in by you at the US Post Office. So any additional tax due is paid with a check sent with the forms, or a Direct Debit arranged on the NC tax payment website.
