After you file

If you amend, the amended return must be printed and mailed. It cannot be efiled. This will likely not be processed prior to the IRS issuing the stimulus payments. 

 

The effect of your refund may not change. If you received a deduction of $12,200 on line 9 of Form 1040, you have already taken the maximum standard deduction for single filers. However, you may be eligible for some tax credits that were disallowed when you indicated you were claimed as a dependent.

 

Should you have to amend, follow the steps below:

  1. Log into your TurboTax account
  2. Choose the tax year that you wish to amend
  3. Click Amend
  4. Make any necessary changes

Keep in mind that when you are amending, the refund tracker monitors the difference from your original filing to the amended return. It does not include any original refund or balance due. If you are claiming any previously unclaimed credits, you will see the difference as an additional refund amount.
