If
you have already filed your tax return and you forgot to take a
deduction , you can file an amended return to fix it. But first
you have to wait.
If
the IRS rejects your tax return, all you have to do is make the changes on your
return and refile.
If
the IRS accepts your tax return, wait until you receive your refund, or your
payment is processed. Then, go to the
link at the bottom of the page for instructions.
Amended returns do not “catch up” to your original return
and replace them; they are processed as two separate returns.
Amended
returns have to be printed and filed by mail. It can take the IRS up to
12 weeks or longer to process them. If you are due a larger refund
than on your original return, your amended return should only show the
difference and you will receive a separate check for it. If you owe money
on your amended return, it will show only the new amount owed, you will have to
mail a check with the return.
It's very important that you take off the deduction that you entered after you filed your return. In order to file an amended return, you have to start with the original return exactly as it was filed.
It's also possible that when you do amend your return, your RI excise taxes aren't enough to increase your refund.https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3288565
