Number of e-files

Hi.  I have successfully submitted 4 federal tax returns for myself & family members.  I just went to submit an amended return for 1 of them, and TT is telling me that the I've reached the limit of 5.   I thought an amended return did not count and even if it did, I've only submitted 4.  I guess that I can physically mail the amended return but I was led to believe that it could be e-filed and that of course would be easier.

As for the 5 return limit,  one of the original 4 was rejected and needed to be resubmitted since I had typed in the social security number incorrectly.  That shouldn't count, right?


I actually said I'd help one more family member but it's looking like I can't.  I am not looking to do anything that is not allowed, but it seems like this is a bug to me.  Any workarounds?
