Question

I amended my taxes but looks like I have to file them myself over mail. It didn’t tell me if I filed state or federal. How do I find this and the address for it?

you have to know whether you are amending state or federal.

Find the federal address in the IRS instructions for 1040-X.

Find the state address in your state tax booklet of instructions.

When you print to mail in TurboTax, the first page will be a cover page. It will have the address to mail your return to and a list of all documents to send with the return. There will be a cover page for the federal return and one for the state return. The state will have the federal at the end of the state pages.

Attach the W-2's, 1099 and any other required forms. Your forms will say whether they are to go with the federal, state, local, or copy to save for your records. Sign the returns in ink. It is better to mail them using a service that gives you a receipt when the mail is delivered.

And.....expect a long wait.

Even during “normal” times it takes about four months for the IRS to process an amended return. During the pandemic and due to the severe backlog at the IRS it is taking much longer—six months or more for many amended returns. Do not expect quick results from amending. When the IRS issues a refund for an amended return it will be by check. They do not make direct deposits for refunds for amended returns. You can watch for information here:
