I'm trying to prepare a 2018 1040X where the only change is a status change from single to Head of Household but can't get the column A to populate.  Help!!

Last week the 2018 1040X wasnt working properly, so make sure youve updated.

Then to properly prepare an amended return you need to open and activate the 1040X (click the year box) BEFORE you make any changes.....if a state is involved, activate the state amended form, then go back to the federal form and make the changes needed.

I just tested a sample return amending from Single to HOH and my figures all flowed fine...so I know it works as intended.

How do I file a 1040x for a 2019 return that had an error in it?  I put 1040x in the form area and it does not even come up?
