Question

I would like to amend my accepted tax return. The online link to amend it through TurboTax leads to an unreachable data file. Is it just currently unavailable?

The federal amended tax return, Form 1040X, will not be available until on or after 02/20/2020

 

An amended tax return, Form 1040X, can only be printed, signed, dated and mailed by you to the IRS, it cannot be e-filed. The IRS will take up to 4 months to process the amended tax return. Wait until you have received the tax refund or the taxes owed have been paid and processed by the IRS before amending the tax return.


On the Tax Home web page when the Form 1040X for amending a 2019 tax return becomes available there will be a link - Amend (change) return

I see where they mentioned it can be amended through Turbotax on February 20th (today). Is turbotax pushing the amendment option for turbotax online back more or am I missing something?

Thanks! The form 1040x states it is available 2/27 so I assume that will be when I am able to print and mail it correct?

That is correct. Now it is an anticipated date to be available, as long as there are no delays.
