Thanks for your response.  Half the beneficiaries received a combination of cash, vehicle & personal assets; the other half received real estate and much smaller amount of cash.   Does this help?   ... View more

I have the same question... what happened to our auto Asset Life History?  it's still there for other types of assets.    ... View more

For anyone else having this issue, check the TAX PAID WITH ORIGINAL RETURN field on the 1040X form.  The program was  populating that field with the tax owed amount, even though that was not correct.  I was able to delete the amount paid and enter the correct amount.    However, there's still something else going on... it's populating Column A (Original return info) with numbers that did not match my original; there are numbers populating the changes Column B with numbers that I did not enter and can't tie to.   I'll have to keep researching this.  ...

There was an extension, and the original return was mailed recently... on the 15th.  But that should be irrelevant to the amendment process from within TurboTax.   The software was up to date prior to mailing the return.     Yes, there was a Schedule D.    ... View more

Yes, Volvo Girl... I've done amendments in the past... but it has never reset to $0.  It always shows the original return Tax Owed/Refund amount as originally filed, and adjusts the Tax Amount/Refund Amount in the status bar based on whatever changes are being made as it goes... just like the regular 1040 return does.     I have started over with same result. I've deleted the 1040X from within the "amended" return and used OPEN FORM to create a new 1040X, with same result.   I was on phone support with a live CPA rep who was trying to help me, but we got disconnected.  Trying to get technical help from TurboTax this year has been more difficult than in the past as well.  I'm assuming he will eventually call me back, but in the meantime, this is not resolved, and I cannot count on a call back.   ...
