or IRS.gov "where to file" you can get a list of all form filing locations based on state of residence/preparation

Software

Doesn't your software print filing instructions with the address on there?

Not if you efile the return and who wouldn't if they can.

We're discussing 1040X

Not if you efile the return and who wouldn't if they can.

And 1040X cannot be e-filed.

[Matt Sova]

Huh?

Not if you efile the return and who wouldn't if they can.

What does e-filing have to do with 1040X?
My software, if a client has to mail in a return or has to do an amendment, the correct instructions print with correct mailing addresses. Maybe they are using "I get everything for $300" software.

"When all ELSE fails, read the instructions" is somewhat of a lost art.

( I'm still scratching my head over the software providing a mailing address for an efiled Form 1040X. . . )

I thought with metafile system we could file, at least, the last two years. Is that only business returns? or is it only 1040's not X's?

Question: Can I file an amended Form 1040X electronically?

Answer:

At this time, the Form 1040X (PDF), Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, is not accepted electronically; only an original tax return may be electronically filed. You must file a paper Form 1040X. If you are due a refund, you will be issued a check and cannot use direct deposit.
