My wife did not file her business income/loss with our federal tax. I believe it’s schedule C 1040 that need to be included. How is this done?

How do I include my business tax return with my federal return?

Please clarify if you have already filed your return or are you currently working on it so we can give you proper instructions.

We have already filed our taxes and have received a refund.  We did not realize my wife Business taxes/loss had to be included in our federal taxes.   We are now trying to amend our federal tax return to include her business.  How is this done?  Most of the reporting for the business will be for loss.  Hasn’t really got off the ground yet.
