In addition to DoninGA's answer, here are some more instructions to help you add a 1099-NEC to your tax return that has already been filed and accepted by IRS.

  • You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
  • Use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
  • Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.
  • The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
  • Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected.
  • You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment
