Question

I got an email in April from TT saying that I should amend my fed return but not my state one. I'm confused because then I am told don't amend, IRS will do it. Help??

the turbotax announcement was premature. the IRS generally doesn't want amended returns. the exception being you took standard deduction because that was better at the time of filing but now itemizing is or perhaps you didn't claim certain credits because you didn't qualify before. 

states are a mixed bag see this link
