a new client filed a 1040 by himself wrongly, he should file 1040NR instead, where should I open 1040X?

Hi,

As 1040 and 1040NR are in different module, I have to file a 1040X for my client who wrongly submitted 1040 to IRS by himself.

I should help him use 1040NR instead, could you let me know where should I start from? should I start from 1040 to create 1040X? or start from 1040NR (but i can't find any 1040X in 1040NR module)?

Any hints where should I go for?

Is there any way to amend return by switching between two modules?

The 1040X and/or 1040NR instructions cover this situation.

Sorry, I mean where should I start from in ProSeries system.

As they are under two different modules.

Hi, 

I have a same issue now. 

Did you solve the problem? Where should I start? 1040NR?

Thank you!

I would begin with the 1040X in Proseries to capture the original entries , then manually enter the changes and explanation.. include complete copy of NR and paper file.
