WILL THE PROGRAM LET ME FILE A SECOND TAX RETURN FOR THE SAME CLIENT TO SUPERCEDE THE ORIGINALLY FILED RETURN?

AFTER I E FILED THE TAX RETURN THE CLIENT FOUND ANOTHER FORM  1099 WITH A LOT MORE INCOME.  Instead of filing an amended return I CAN file another return before the due date and it will supersede the original return and avoid underreporting penalties'  WILL PRO SERIES BASIC ALLOW ME TO DO THIS.

No, this is not allowed.

This is not so much a ProSeries policy, but rather an IRS policy.  Once your SSN has been used on a filed return, that's it.  Any return that is attempted to be electronically filed using the same SSN will be automatically rejected.

Amending the return is the only option here.

I'm new to ProSeries.  I have the professional version and I'm not sure the system will allow you to refile another return with the same social security numbers, but let's see if someone with more experience can confirm that.  With that said, why wouldn't you want to file an amended return?

No.  Paper file a superseded return or EF an amended return.
