I received a corrected 1099 form. It was a minor correction and does not change my tax liability. Do I need to file an amended return?

No, you do not need to file an amended return if you added the information and the tax due did not change.

 

Per IRS:

You should amend your return if you reported certain items incorrectly on the original return, such as filing status, dependents, total income, deductions or credits.

 

However, you don’t have to amend a return because of math errors you made; the IRS will correct those. You also usually won’t have to file an amended return because you forgot to include forms, such as W-2s or schedules, when you filed — the IRS will normally request those forms from you.
