I feel like a moron. I filed as single (having never been married before). I got married in April of 2019. I need to amend my return. It was accepted by IRS today. In reading other articles it is recommended to wait and file an amended return using 1040X AFTER you’ve received your refund/or your tax payment is cleared. I am due a refund.
3 questions, when can I amend my return and when will Form 1040X be available to do so?
Lastly, I submitted a mortgage loan application last Friday, 1.10.20. Will this affect my lender processing my loan? (They request copies of tax returns and 4506-T). My fear is when they notice I filed as Single. My spouse is not filing until after we close on the home.
