Because of a turbo tax glitch, I filed with standard deductions rather than itemized. There's a substantial difference from what I owe the IRS if I use the itemized deductions. Can I file a 'superseding return' prior to the filing deadline and pay the taxes owed based on that return (which is $1500 less)? Would I be penalized because the IRS won't process the superseding return until after the deadline? Since this is a paper filing, would I need to attach W-2s and 1099s (annuity income)?
Or would it be better if I filed an amended return 1040x after the filing deadline and have the IRS owe me the $1500?
