After you file

Did someone in the college financial aid office tell you that there is something wrong with your 2018 tax return, so you have to amend it? Before you amend your tax return, make sure that you really have to amend it. It's very common for college financial aid offices to say that your tax return is wrong when there is really nothing wrong with it. There is a surprising amount of ignorance and misinformation about tax returns in financial aid offices. What exactly did they say is wrong with your tax return, and why do they think it's wrong?
