How can I change the return I just filed

I knew that the answer on schedule e was wrong about whether I needed to send someone a 1099, but I couldn't get it to go back to that question. I just filed and saw my return 5 minutes ago. What can i do?

How can I change the return I just filed

You will need to wait to see if the return is accepted or rejected. If your return is rejected, you may go back into your return and fix whatever it is that needs to be fixed. If your return is accepted, see the FAQ below to see if you need to amend your return and if so, follow the steps below to amend.

Information Below on whether you need to Amend your Return:

Follow the steps below to Amend your return, if applicable :


   - Sign in to your TurboTax account, if you're not already signed in.
    -In the 2016 Tax Year section, click Amend (change) return.
        Note: If you see an orange Take me to my return button, you can't amend because you haven't filed yet. Just click or tap that button to open your return and make your changes.
    -In the pop-up, click Amend using TurboTax Online
    -Click Continue on the We'll help you change (amend) your return screen.
    -Follow the on-screen directions to amend your return.
        Don't worry if your refund drops to zero or does strange things while you are amending. Your calculations will come out correctly in the end.
    -When you're done, we'll provide instructions to print and mail your amended return because an amended return can't be e-filed.


You can track your amended taxes with the IRS tracking tool. It takes the IRS around 16 weeks to process your amended taxes
