e-filing an amendment

[gfpstaxes]

Can you electronically file an amendment if the original return was e-filed by another software?

The FAQs says no, and we asked for clarification several weeks ago, still nothing.  You can follow the thread here:

At this moment, only the return that was originally filed and has an Accepted status can be amended and e-filed. We understand the ability to e-file amended returns that were originally not filed through ProSeries is an important ability to have and plan to have it available in future versions.

@Intuit_Matt B   I saw someone over in the ProSeries FB group mention that they were attaching PDFs of the corrected 1040 and Sch B to the amended Efiled return.....do we have to attach these additional forms or does everything that needs to go with it automatically get included?

[Intuit_Matt B]

You should not have to attach any additional forms as the changes are being made on the return directly and will be sent with the e-file transmission. Not sure what prompted them to feel like they needed to attach pdfs but I will see if I can't find the post to understand their reasoning.

When will this get fixed?  I need to eFile a 2019 1040X where I’m not the preparer who eFiled the original 1040.  Need to do it now.

You will have to mail it in.
