TurboTax amendments for state returns

After I amend federal return, I would also need to amend my state returns for 2022, specifically for NJ resident, and NY, CA, IL non-resident. Will the TurboTax be able to handle that? How much does TurboTax charge for Federal amendment and filing? How much does TurboTax charge for state amendments and filings? Thank you!

No, there's not a way to do the calculations in TurboTax Desktop before you purchase it.

You will need to download the 2022 TurboTax Program and then you would get one free state and have to pay for the additional states.  Yes TurboTax can do multiple states.  The price would depend on the return complexity.  You can click below to see the download options.

So does that mean that I would need to pay for a TurboTax desktop version first?  I would prefer to first go through amendment calculations using TurboTax to determine that it's actually worth filing an amendment to get some additional refund back. What if the difference is negligible, and it's not worth buying a desktop version? Is there a way in TurboTax to run through calculations first before spending any money?

Is it possible to use TurboTax online version for prior year calculations?

You can only use TurboTax Online for 2024, not prior years.
