I'm a full-time student at an out-of-state school, and had income in both states. In my home state (PA) return, I listed my residency as part-time but need to amend. How?

I learned after filing that going to school in another state does not make you a part-year resident. So need to amend my residency to PA resident for the whole year.

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
