purchase old state return

Can I still purchase a 2023 California State software on Intuit?

 

I need to amend my state return. My Treasury Bonds were accidentally entered as regular interest by H&R Block (don't use them !!!) and taxed by the state. Those should be tax free for California.

If I get the software, can I just amend my state return since the federal return was not affected.

To amend a return you did somewhere else or you don't have the original .tax file, you would first have to fill out Turbo Tax like you are doing the original return.   You have to recreate the actual wrong original return. Then when it matches each line that you really filed you have to tell Turbo Tax you will mail it so it thinks it was filed. Then you can amend it.

 

You would have to buy the prior year Desktop program here. They only sell the last 3 years. You need a full Windows or Mac computer to install it on

I have the 2023 Deluxe Fed software so I can just buy the 2023 state (California) ???

You agree that I don't need to amend Federal return?

You agree that Treasury Bills should not have been taxed by California?
