What does it mean to "amend" a return?

Although many taxpayers equate "amending" with "changing," the word "amend" has a very specific, narrowly-defined meaning in the world of taxes: Amend  (verb)  – To make changes to an e-filed return that has either been accepted by the government or a paper return that has already been mailed. An amendment must be filed on a specific tax form created exclusively for that purpose (for example, Form 1040X is used to amend federal 1040-EZ, 1040-A, and 1040 returns). According to this definition, making changes to a return that hasn't been accepted or mailed yet is – well – making changes to a return that hasn't been accepted or mailed yet. For this reason, you cannot amend an e-filed return that's in pending or rejected status. Related Information:  http://www.turbotax4u.com/

It is possible, and common, to have multiple accounts with TurboTax; however at this time we cannnot merge those accounts. To see a list of accounts you may have: 1.Begin our account recovery process. 2.Enter your email address 3.Click Continue to get an e-mailed list of all accounts tied to that email. 4.Repeat Step 1-3 for any other email addresses you may have. If you no longer have access to an e-mail address you believe you had an account with you will need to click the Try Something Else link beneath where you enter the e-mail address. If you have more than one TurboTax account, we recommend that you stick with the same account when you do next year's return. That way we can automatically transfer the info over. It also makes access to your prior-year returns much easier.
