    If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been filed and accepted by the taxing agency, you should follow these guidelines. 

     

    • You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
    • You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
    • Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.
    • The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
    • Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected.
    • You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment

    Thank you for the response. The problem I'm having though is that it the desktop software is not actually loading my 2023 taxes. It's telling me I have no data on my 1040, which is of course, incorrect.

    Can you clarify if the account you are trying to amend your 2023 return is the same account you filed your 2023 return with?

    I am having a problem amending my 2023 return.   After I say I wnt to amend, the Federal Tax due changes to over $10000 and I have not put any new info in.  Any idea why this is happening.  I called

    TurboTax support and they were not able to figure out why either.

    If you're using TurboTax Desktop for 2023, when you open the program, you should see your return shown, and you can select Continue your 2023 return.  Then go to 'Other Tax Situations' and select 'Amend a Return'.  TurboTax may ask you if you want to amend your return. 

     

    In TurboTax Online, scroll down to 'Add a State' to get back into your return, after selecting 2023 at the home page under 'My documents and returns'.
