Can I make an amendment to my 2017 taxes I just filed and it was accepted? Is this an easy process?

Yes, if you have already e-filed or mailed the return and they accept it, you will need to wait until you have received your refund. Then, you will need to amend that return to make changes (add your additional information). You will need to send in any forms that caused the need for an amendment (Original 1040 Form, new 1040X Form and the reason for the change). Print, sign and mail your forms to the IRS.
