Trying to efile a 2019  amended 1040X.  Followed the steps outlined on the community site to prepare and file the return.  Everytime I attempt to efile I get a message the original return has to be file first.  The return was filed, there is a completed form 9325 in the data file but I can't seem to figure out how to reset the file to accept the original return was filed.

Are you using that same original file as the amended?

Have you updated the program?

I followed the instructions found on the forum.  Save the original return changing the name.

right, but you dont use that renamed file, you amend the original file.....this making a copy part seems to trip lots of people up.
