I forgot to include 2 charitable deductions earlier this year. I submitted my federal returns electronically and have entered the amended return into Turbotax today and am ready to mail it. However, my state return was mailed but returned due to an invalid address. Should I re-submit the incorrect state return, wait a week, and then send the amendment? Or is there a way for me to submit the state return without an amendment?

If your state returns were not accepted, they were never filed. You can therefore make the changes on your state return based upon the correct information and then file your state returns without having to process an amended state return.

You can generate the state forms using the amended version of the program but be sure to indicate the state is not being amended when prompted in the state interview section.
