Amending a Texas Franchise tax return in ProConnect Tax

Texas doesn't support e-file of amended returns. Preparers will receive a diagnostic indicating they need to paper file.

Per the Texas Franchise form instructions:

• If an entity needs to amend a Texas franchise report, it must file all pages of the report (as originally filed) along with a cover letter explaining the reason for amending the report.  The entity must write "AMENDED" on the top of each page of the report and submit supporting documentation.  See Rule 3.584(f) for additional information.
