Locate a copy of your originally-filed state and federal return(s). If you didn’t print or save when you e-filed, you will need to request a copy of the returns.
Review your returns and determine what corrections you need to make.
Return to the Q&A interview and modify, add, or delete the information that needs amending. Make a note of each item you are changing and the reason for each change as you will need these notes to complete the amendment.
From within your TaxAct return (Online or Desktop), click State, then click the applicable state name. On smaller devices, click in the upper left-hand corner, then click State.
Click Amended Return (If you don't see the option listed, click to expand Miscellaneous Topics as it may be located there).
The program will proceed with the interview questions for you to enter or review the appropriate information.
Once the amendment steps are complete, for states that allow electronic filing, click the Filing tab and complete the e-file steps.
