If you already filed your return by mail or e-file and find that you need to make a change, you will have to wait until the IRS either accepts or rejects the return:

If you have NOT filed yet, follow these steps to fix the Social Security number:

  • Log into your return and click orange Take me to my return button
  • Click Personal Info tab and then Edit next to your name (or the name of person that needs a change) and correct social there

NOTE: If you have filed already and it gets rejected, go to https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1901491 and follow the corresponding steps.
