We can help you
amend your 2016 taxes if you need to make changes and your taxes were already
e-filed and accepted (or mailed).
Before you get
started, read this to make sure you actually need to amend.
- 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.
The processing
time for amended state return differs from state to state. Contact
your state to find out how long it takes them to process your amended
taxes.
