Amended tax

I filed and got accepted on 1/31, verified 3/1. After I verified I amended my return after realizing a mistake. No tax topic on wmr, no movement/ codes 150 806 766 766 on transcript since 3/7. My question is “if the original return is not supposed to be affected by the amendment then why do I still not have a 846 code on my account?”

So you filed your amendment before your original return was processed? Amending prior to your original return being fully processed can cause delays.

 

You can check the status of your amended return here.

 

 

If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been submitted, you should follow these guidelines. 

  • You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed. 
  • You will have to 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 amending. 
  • 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
