Question

I'm trying to e-file my amended returns for 2022. But it says the e-filing window was closed on October 31, 2023. I e-filed both federal and state returns.

The TurboTax agent I called earlier this year said I should be able to e-file my amended returns. The reason given was perhaps the 2022 returns were not processed and asked me to try again after April 2024.

This is a simple amendment as I received a corrected 1099 from my brokerage.

Thanks

Your 2022 amended return will need to be mailed to the IRS.

 

Where to Mail 2022 Amended Returns

 

Your 2023 federal Form 1040-X amended return is eligible for electronic filing if the original return was successfully e-filed using TurboTax. However, there is a chance your return cannot be electronically filed. If this happens, you'll need to print and mail your tax return.

Thanks Cynthia.

 

I indeed submitted my federal and state taxes electronically using TurboTax. If TurboTax offers the option to electronically file amended returns, that's precisely what I require. My tax documentation exceeds 500 pages, making printing and mailing both federal and state amended returns extremely burdensome. Additionally, I had a really bad experience the last time I printed and mailed my returns.

 

I got the following message when I tried to e-file my amended returns:

Signature date must be 12_31_2023.png

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Although I did not want to wrongly date my signature date, the Turbo Tax agent on the phone asked me to try to date the signature date 12/31/2023

 

I then got this message:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I clicked on amend a return using the 2022 version of Turbo Tax. Am I doing something wrong?

 

Thanks

From what I've read you can efile a 2022 amended return only from the Online version not the Desktop program, sorry.

I'm having the same issue.

You will need to paper file.

 

Efile for amended returns is only available for the current year. You must paper file amendments for prior year returns. 

Can I e-file my federal Form 1040-X amended return?
