You usually have three years from the date you filed your original tax return to file Form 1040X to claim a refund. You can file it within two years from the date you paid the tax, if that date is later.

Please read this IRS document for more information.

The amendment forms (form 1040X) are now available on both TurboTax Online and TurboTax Desktop.

Please see this TurboTax FAQ for instructions on how to amend your tax return in TurboTax.

The 1040X (amended return) forms are available in both TurboTax Online and CD/Download versions. Please see this TurboTax Help article for more information: How do I amend my 2020 return?

However, do NOT amend your return to remove the unemployment benefits, the IRS announced that they will automatically adjust your return and send any additional refund amount directly to you. However, some people may now be newly eligible for additional deductions and credits not already included on the original tax return. In these cases, you will likely want to amend your return to claim these additional dollars.
