Question

I need to add a state to my 2020 tax return that has already been filed. How do I navigate online to do this? I tried amending my return but I never saw "Add a State".

It won't allow me to download the 2020 State software. There's no hyperlink in the Downloads tab available for selection.

 

I paid for it for another state. Do I need to buy another one?

If you already paid for the state program there is no need to pay again.

Using the TurboTax desktop edition for 2020 you may have to start a fake tax return.  Click on File>New Tax Return

Then see if you can download the state software.

If the state program still cannot be downloaded contact TurboTax support for assistance.
