TurboTax Online has not yet opened up the amendment process for 2017.   It may start in late January or early February.  But someone can likely answer any questions about what you may need to do.

You are posting in an already-answered thread from last year that will not show up as needing help.  You should start your own new thread at the link below so it will show up to the whole forum as needing help.

When you go to the form at the link, the first box is for a summary of your question, like a title, and is limited to 170 characters..  Lower on the form you will come to another box with plenty of room to enter details.    This is a public Internet forum, so don't post any personal info.

I'll close this old thread.

I need to add $404 from my 1099G

You will need to wait for your original tax return to be accepted by the IRS.  Once that has occurred then you can amend your tax return.

 

To amend your return you need to log into your TurboTax account to see an option to Amend a Filed and Accepted Return. Click on that to start the amending process.  Once you are finished making changes to your return you will need to print it out, sign, date and mail it to the IRS.

 

Please see the below FAQ for more information on amending your tax return:

I need to amend my 2020 tax returns

January 28, 2021

If you need to amend your return, you would need to wait until it's either been accepted or rejected. If it's rejected, you can simply go in and fix the error and re-submit your return. If it's accepted, you would want to wait until you receive your refund and then use the link provided below to make sure you really need to amend:

@Mcbyles1 Have you already e-filed your tax return? If so, please see How do I add another form (like a W-2) or add/change/update something after I already filed? for information on correcting your return.
