Amended Return Question

[Dave T]

I hope this is a simple question regarding e-filed amended returns.

I copied the original return and prepared the 1040X within that.  I need to add two supporting schedules EIC and form 8867. How do I do that?  

Thank you

EIC should automatically populate first, then form 8867, have you entered the new data that would qualify the client for EIC?

First create incorrect tax return, save it & then click amend tax return from inside software & add up all new required schedules & forms. Send 1040X with new schedules/forms which were not sent earlier to IRS.

If they aren't in the return, simply add those forms. Or am I misunderstanding your question?

The same way you do it when you prepare a regular return... by clicking on the form that needs to be added.

If you are paper filing, you need to attach new forms that were not originally filed AND forms that have changed.  If the customer efiled, you should be able to efile the amended return and as long as you fill out the new forms, they will be included in the efile file.
