Critter... you need to STOP ANSWERING THIS ISSUE.
Your answers are WRONG!
You have posted DOZENS of replies which are COMPLETELY WRONG!
I have responded to your wrong replies and wrong information in specific bulleted examples in a previous post.
But for the sake of THIS post.... NO NO NO... you DO NOT file an Amended Return to change your status from "non-filer" to filer".... in order to correct the mistake that many people made by doing this on the IRS web site.
NO NO NO... you are WRONG. The 1040X Amendment Form is ONLY for amending financial information, not for changing filing status information.
The correct thing people need to do is to file their completed 1040 and attach a 3-4 sentence cover letter explaining that THIS is their 1040 and that they made a mistake using the "non-filer" feature on the IRS web site.
THAT IS ALL.
- NO 1040X
- NO Amendment
- NO redoing their return in TurboTax
