Download Amendment Software Turbotax Mac 2019
I recently had to amend my 2015 tax returns, which were originally filed online. Apparently there's no way to amend a return online – you have to download the software. Okay, fair enough.
If you're on Windows, you can just go to the website and find the download link for the version you need. But if you're on a Mac, you have to fill out a form to request a download link. After a few days, you'll receive an email with a link to the download and a one-time access code – that's right, if the download fails for any reason, you have to request a new link and wait all over again.
So I go through that BS and get the Mac app. I launch it, it runs through the setup/registration process, and then boom – instantly crashes. Tried it again, same thing. Rebooted, same thing. Copied the app over to a different Mac (because I already used my one allotted download), same thing.
I figure since this is happening on two different Macs that I must not be the only person encountering this problem. So I search around and eventually come across a post on the TurboTax support forums describing this exact issue – TurboTax 2015 instantly crashing on macOS 10.13.4 after registration. Since the 2015 app is no longer updated, the workaround is to download and run a shell script that fixes whatever it is that's causing the crash. Okay, great, at least there's a fix!
I click the download link for the shell script – broken link.
So I dig around some more and eventually find a different post, with a different link to the shell script, that someone else was kind enough to upload because the 'official' post from TurboTax was never updated with a working link. I run that and finally I can launch the app without it crashing.
Now I can finally amend one of my state returns, which is what I intended to do an hour and a half ago (well, actually three days ago including waiting for the download link).
Now the problem is that because I filed in multiple states that year, the return won't even open unless the add-ons for each state are installed, and you only get one for free. So even though I was only editing one return, I had to spend $50 on the add-on for the other state that I wasn't editing, just to get the file to open.
..oh, and then I discovered that I had actually filed correctly and didn't need to make any amendments in the first place, but that part's my fault
