how do i ACCESS THE INPUT SECTION OF MY RETURN AFTER FILING?

Do NOT mess around with the "input" screens of your return if you already e-filed.   You cannot make changes while your e-file is pending or while it is being processed.  If you try to make changes you will just make a huge mess of your tax return.

 

If you made a mistake and need to enter something else, wait until the return has been fully processed and then you can amend.

 

 

Wait until your original return has been fully processed before you amend, and make sure you have saved a pdf of the original return before you amend. (If you do not save it as a pdf, the amended return will overwrite the original, and the original will be lost forever)

 

 

Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take four months or more for the IRS to process an amended return.
