Amending

I’m new to filing my taxes so I’m having a hard time understanding a lot of this stuff. so when I was filing my taxes last week, I had forgotten that my company switched paycheck systems and that I was supposed to receive 2 W2s but I only knew about the second one, so when I filled my taxes I only filled that W2 and not the one from the last paycheck company. I know I can amend my federal taxes through TurboTax, but can I amend my Maryland taxes as well? Or do I need to do that separately

When you amend your Federal return in TurboTax, you can also amend your state return.

 

If you have already filed your return, you'll need to wait for your tax return to either be rejected or accepted, if it is rejected you can add your Form W-2, correct any other errors on the return and resubmit it.

 

If it is accepted, you will need to amend your return to include the Form W-2.

 

Amending won't delay your original refund. However, if you're amending to claim more money, the IRS says to wait until you've received your original refund before filing an amendment. Once you've received your original refund, feel free to cash or spend it while your amendment gets processed

 

Please be aware that Form 1040X will not be available in TurboTax until February 24, 2022, but once it is available, you will be able to prepare and e-file your amended return.

 

Please see this TurboTax article for instructions on how to amend your tax return in TurboTax.
