amended return

3 replies
35 views

I have discovered a mistake on my 2018 return for which I need to amend and pay a penalty. I have already amended the return for 18 once for a different reason. Do I create the new amended return from the amended return or from the original? I did both with turbo tax, of course.

To complete the second amendment you will need to manipulate your return by deleting the Form 1040X, which will leave you with a 1040 "original" return that includes the changes from the first amended return. Then, you will start the amend process over again to put in the information needed for the second amendment.

many have tried to do exactly that (see forum).

Easier said than done. It just doesn't work.

OK. experience with 2018 and earlier TurboTax. Maybe this year it's improved.
