Question

Can I file a 2018 CA Amended Return on ProConnect? The Schedule X is not showing up in the preview.

I've entered on the 1040x screen that I'm amending the state return, put the explanation for the state and entered in the Overpaid tax on the CA Amended Return (Sch X) screen and the Sch X is not showing up and there is no place on the top of CA 540 to mark it an amended return.

Follow the following steps and Sch X will be generated:

  1. Navigate to Miscellaneous Forms > Amended Return (1040X) > General Information and Federal (1040X);
  2. On the Gen. Info. & 1040X tab, on the line 1=amending state return, enter 1 and select CA from the dropdown on the right.

Thanks for your response itonewbie, there is no dropdown to the right of that box, or anywhere on that page for selecting the state. I've got the CA Amended Return (Sch X) in the Miscellaneous Forms > Amended Return (1040X) section, I've entered the overpaid tax on original return and on the State and Local screen on the 1040X screen I selected an option for why I'm amending and even typed in the explanation on the CA section of that. There is still no Sch X showing up when I preview the return.

In case you do not see the elements highlighted in red, there may be something wrong with the setup of your account.  You should then contact Intuit Support for help.
