It is possible to complete multiple amendments in the TaxAct program. This is done by completing each amendment separately, printing the return and the amendment form, and then clearing the amendment form to create a new amendment.

First, make sure you print and keep copies of:

• The original return (both Federal and State, if applicable)
• The return (both Federal and State, if applicable) as it was when each amendment was completed, and
• Copies of each amended return (Form 1040-X and the state amendment, if applicable) you complete.

Once you start to make changes, you will no longer have the ability to view or print the return as it was before those changes were made.

To complete another amendment, you will need to delete the previously-created Form 1040-X from the Forms Explorer list (follow the same steps for the State form, but within the State folder).

If you need help deleting Form 1040-X, go to our Delete Online Forms or Desktop Versions - Deleting Form, Schedule, Document Received, or Worksheet FAQs.

Modify the data in the return so it is corrected. Next, repeat the amendment section of the Q&A (or the forms entry method in the Desktop program) using the amounts from the previously filed Form 1040-X as the "original" amounts to complete the interview questions.
