If your change results in a balance due to the IRS, you will need to file an Amended Return (1040X).
You won't be able to amend your tax return until the IRS releases the 1040-X Amendment form for 2019. The IRS estimate for issuing the 1040X form is mid February.
Additionally, make sure that your 2019 return was accepted in TurboTax Online or paper-filed through the mail.
To prepare an amended return through TurboTax, follow these steps:
- Sign in to TurboTax.
- Scroll down to Your tax return & documents (you may need to select Show), select 2019 and then Amend (change) return.
- Select Amend using TurboTax Online.
- Carefully follow the instructions. Don't worry if your refund changes to $0. This is normal on amended returns.
- When finished, we'll give you instructions for printing and mailing your amended return as amendments can't be e-filed.
