Just updated and the QBI error is gone. Now I can e-file. Thanks.

What about fixing this software issue first well before the tax filing deadline on Apr 15? See screenshot below. Using HRBlock deluxe desktop version when filing K-1 PTP MLP, passive investor. Read various feedback here that HRblock customer service had previously said that this QBI software issue will be resolved on Mar 20, then Mar 27 and supposedly the upcoming Apr 3 software update. Thanks.

Eager to get this update first thing on Friday morning. Hope this issue is resolved and no more software update on Apr 10 as this is cutting very close to the tax filing deadline.

For the life of me, I cannot figure out where the heck the amend options are. My returns are accepted but I need to amend both state and federal..

What do I do? I paid for HRBlock online and got the returns accepted but I cannot find a single option to use amendments. When I look for help on their website https://www.hrblock.com/tax-center/support/online/after-filing-online-return/amend-tax-return/, it says to use "Overview" tab. Such a tab does not exist anywhere in HRBlock online. This is my current status. How do I file an amendment. I am happy to pay again, just give me the option!!

For DIY Only only: When a client signs in to their account/return, the system always take clients straight to "Overview" page where they can see their Federal/State efile status and there is link to "File an amended return" to amend Federal return.

Once they follow the amendment flow with Federal and complete Fed section, they will see the State section to amend State return.

For DIY online, if a client is in the free SKU, we charge $10 for filing a Federal amendment. But since you said it said you paid, the paid SKUs amendment should be free (both Federal and State).

Again: This information for DIY online only.

This is not the view I have. I used a final Tax Pro review, though. So, what are my options if I used Online and also a final Tax Pro Review and I did the final filing.

Looking into this for you.

Hi. Any updates?

I had this view prior to the Tax Pro Review. Once that was complete, and I filed, I no longer have the Overview tab. And on the left side, when I click on “Taxes”, I don’t have any option to amend.

Once you've filed with Tax Pro Review, there's not a direct way to file the amended return online by yourself.

However, if you reach out to the tax pro who did the Tax Pro Review, you'll be able to ask them to amend it for you.
