Re: Attempting to amend 2020 return, but getting error saying it can't amend except for a 2020 calendar year. Where do I need to indicate this is for 2020?

I followed the steps in the "How do I amend an Individual return using ProSeries?" article on Proconnect, but it doesn't seem to address this issue.

Did you mark the 2020 box at the top of the 1040X?

That was actually the first thing that I looked for, but for some reason the 1040-X wasn't showing up in the forms used and wouldn't come up in a search. I had indicated that I wanted to electronically amend the return, which is what I thought triggered the 1040-X to appear. At any rate, something I did resulted in the 1040-X appearing and I did check the 2020 box. Thanks.
