Question

I have e filed 5 returns. I need to efile an amendment but the software won’t let me because the 5 return max rule. How do you get around that limit to allow efiling of amendments to returns already filed. I do not want to mail the amendment.

The IRS sets the rules for e-filing federal tax returns using personal tax preparation software. There is no way to increase the number of e-files once the 5 e-files have been used. All other tax returns and amended tax returns will have to be printed and mailed.
