How do I amend my return to take the standard deduction? I itemized and am getting a refund but by taking the standard deduction I get a bigger refund.  My husband and I file separately.

You can amend returns that have been accepted by the IRS. If your return is pending, you won't be able to make any changes until it's accepted or rejected by the IRS. If you don't know your e-file status, we can help you check it.
