while amending my 2024 e-filed return is it ok to delete the 1099 original download transaction and replace it with the corrected version?

I received a corrected 1099 consolidated statement. When using the amending function in my Turbo Tax desktop program, is it ok to delete the original 1099 consolidated download and replace it with the new corrected download statement and finish the amended return?

Yes. You want to put in the correct information, so it would be appropriate to delete the original.

 

If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been filed and accepted by the taxing agency, you should follow these guidelines. 

 

  • You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
  • You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
  • Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.
  • The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
  • Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected.
  • You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment
