How do I file a 2022 1040X electronically with my ipin number using the Turbotax 2022 software? Thanks.

The 2022 Turbotax software contains a Form 1040X with no place to input an ipin number. More recent versions of this Form 1040X accommodate the ipin, which IRS says must be used. How do I handle without filing by mail? Thanks.

TurboTax does not support e-filing a 2022 Form 1040X, it can only be printed and mailed.

On the Signature section of the 1040X there is a box where you can enter an IP PIN

Well, it tells me it is supported. It is ready to file electronically with all needed forms, but the 1040X is apparently outdated. Thanks.

The top line on Form 1040-X indicates the tax year.

The form is the same last year as now.

Did you put the IP PIN in the other tax info section ?

Thanks to the responders below. I think I will be filing by mail, even though Turbotax 2022 says it will handle amended returns. But it does not appear stable and I don't trust it. @DoninGA may well be correct. And I will use the updated Form 1040X which allows input of the IP PIN. But I have another question:

Hypothetical Form 1040X for 2022:

Line 18, Overpayment on original 2022 Form 1040:  25000

Line 20, Amount you owe:  15000 and will be paid immediately

Hypothetical Amended Form 1040 for 2022 filed as an attachment to 2022 Form 1040X:

Line 34 and Line 36 (Overpayment & amount applied to 2023)  10000 due to additional tax liability BUT THE OVERPAYMENT SHOULD NOT CHANGE FROM THE ORIGINAL OVERPAYMENT OF 25000 SINCE THE LIABILITY OF 15000 IS BEING PAID IMMEDIATELY.

Will this create problems with the IRS? I am hesitant to override data in the amended 2022 Form 1040 attachment as that may cause the 2022 Form 1040X filing to be rejected. 

Any help greatly appreciated!

Do not include your old 1040 nor your revised 1040 because the Form 1040-X reflects any changes there and becomes your new tax return.

Include any new/corrected document only if it shows federal tax withheld, and include in order only those Sequence Numbered tax forms and Schedules that changed or were added due to your amendment.
Attachment Sequence Number is on all the forms and Schedules that come after 1040.

If any forms specify an attachment, put all those attachments at the end in the same order as the forms they go with.

This sounds right! I was concerned about including a revised 1040 with a lower amount applied to 2023, even after having paid a balance due. That would have been a double payment. Thanks!
