Retirement tax questions

@DavidD66 

Thank you for your response. 

Would you be able to help with more questions about amended returns ? 

Q 1 - I don't think i can efile my 2021 amended return. Turbotax premier desktop edition says TurboTax e-filling closed on October 17th, 2022. 

Q 2 - TurboTax instructions says I should only send forms which have changed. So in my case, that means form 1040X and form 8606.  No other document needed. 

 

However IRS website says for Amended return, I should send all the same forms and schedules.

To amend a return, file Form 1040-X, Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return. You can use tax software to electronically file your 1040-X online.

Submit all the same forms and schedules as you did when you filed your original Form 1040 even if you don't have adjustments on them.

File Form 8879, IRS e-file Signature Authorization with your 1040-X.

You can file up to 3 amended returns for the same year.

File on paper if you're amending a return you originally filed on paper and Forms 1040 and Form 1040-SR, U.S. Return for SeniorsPDF before 2020, and Form 1040-NR, Nonresident Alien Income Tax ReturnPDF before 2021.

 

I am not sure which instructions ( IRS or TT ) to follow. 

 

Thanks!
