2018 Amended 1120S is still being treated as an amended return in 2019 but isn't marked at amended. How can I fix this?

NP, @steven1.

Sounds like the rollover may have caused some issues.  If you haven't yet started 2019, you may try to proforma a new return but uncheck the box for amended return before doing so.  Otherwise, you only other option is to contact Support and send them the return in the hope that they can resolve it for you.

If I were you, I'd try a new proforma because you may end up spending hours with Support but not get anywhere.

I'm confused by your reference to 2018 and 2019.  If you created the 1120S for 2018, you'll not get a form that prints 2019.

If you are referring to a 2018 return having box 4H checked erroneously, you should check your input under Other Forms > Amended Return (1120S) > Amended Return (1120S) and make sure you have the box for Amended federal return (MANDATORY) unchecked.

Thank you for your quick response! Let me clarify the issue.

During the 2018 tax season I had to amend an 1120S tax return. I roll the return forward into the 2019 tax season in order to complete the 2019 tax return. The return that was rolled forward is still being treated as an amended return in the software even though the return isn't marked amended in the input screen.
