The text message you received wasn't from the IRS. The IRS doesn't contact taxpayers by text, or use third party “mediation” agencies, so this was likely a scam.
If you forgot to include 1099-INT income on an already e-filed return, the correct fix is to file an amended return (Form 1040-X).
To file an amendment using TurboTax, 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
