Hi all,
So I helped my boyfriend file his 2019 tax return but I mailed it in December 2020 due to some issues where an employer he worked for in 2019 didn’t send a w-9 to him and we had to fill out that substitute w-9 form. The lateness was my fault. He is due a refund so from what I have read the lateness of filing doesn’t negatively affect him.
My question is whether or not I need to wait for him to receive his direct deposit, indicative of the mailed 2019 tax return being processed, before e-filing his 2020 tax return (we expect him to receive his w-9 (edit: I mean w-2) from 2020 employers)?
