After filing federal income taxes I discovered my spouse earned freelance income but never got a 1099 form from the employing company. How do I amend my form to add it?

This information cannot be changed at this time and you should wait until the return is either accepted or rejected.  If your return is rejected, you will be able to modify before you resubmit.   

 

If your return is accepted, you can amend, or correct, your return if the original entries need correction. There is no additional charge to use Turbo Tax to amend your federal or state return unless you need to upgrade to input the new information, but you will need to wait until the IRS and Indiana have finished processing the original return. You do not want two copies of your return there at the same time and sometimes they make adjustments.   

 

This is a TurboTax Help article with some Do's and Do nots of amending

 


If she received business income that was not included on a Form 1099, you may enter that in the Add Income section of the Schedule C Self-Employment section. Cash App transactions, cash, checks, and other methods of payment can be entered here. 

 

  1. Click on the Add Income button 
  2. Select Other self-employed income, includes cash and checks and Continue.  
  3. Enter a Description, such as Cash App, and the Amount
