I've already filed and been accepted. I recently received my 1098E from student loan lender for parent loan showing 31K in interest paid due to consolidation. My retiree income is extremely low. Sh

My income is about equal to the interest paid.

Did you still have any tax liability? If there is a extra amount you can get as a refund, then your should amend.

 

  1. Scroll down to Your tax return & documents (you may need to select Show), select 2019 and then Amend (change) return.
  • If you only see the option to amend 2018 or earlier, it's because you can't amend an unfiled 2019 return. Instead, just select Pick up where you left off, make your changes, and disregard the rest of these instructions.
  1. Select Amend using TurboTax Online.
  2. Carefully follow the instructions. Don't worry if your refund changes to $0. This is normal on amended returns.
  3. When finished, we'll give you instructions for printing and mailing your amended return as amendments can't be e-filed.
