Did you mail in the amended return for a refund ? If so they will process the return however if you filed late then the refund will not be released ... it is considered forfeited after 3 years.

If you did not file for an extension then the Social Security number of the child had to be issued on or before April 17, 2022. Since the amended return was filed after the due date, the IRS disallowed the amended return for the dependent child.

Level 15

for any tax year before 2019, any refund is forfeit because the amended return was not filed within 3 years of the due date of the original return including extensions.

@khyrac93 - what tax year is the amendment for?

the deadline to claim a refund is 3 years from the original filing date (assuming you didn't file for an extension):

2018 - deadline was April 15, 2022

2019 - deadline is July 15, 2023

2020 - deadline is May 17, 2024

2021 - deadline is April 17, 2025

if you filed the amendment past these deadlines, there is nothing you can do; that is the law. it's just a lesson learned 🙂
