Get your taxes done using TurboTax

We can't see your amended return, but there are some key numbers to focus on.

Please review your 1040-X

Line 1 should increase by the exact amount of your wife's pension.

Line 5 should also increase by the amount of your wife's pension.

Line 11 will reflect the (Column B) Net change to your tax.  Column A should match your original tax return, (Form 1040 line 16).

Line 16 is the amount of what you owed on your original return that you paid when you filed it.

Line 17 This should include all withholdings, credits and payments made with your original return.

If you still can't identify where things went wrong, please reach out again with any additional details.
