After you file

What information do you need to add?

If you already filed your return, you need to amend it in order to add more information.

To amend your 2020 return you must wait until the IRS either accepts or rejects your return.

If the IRS rejects your return, you can add the missing information and re-submit your return.

If the IRS accepts your return, you have to wait until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund. Then you can prepare an amended tax return and mail it in. 

  1. In TurboTax, scroll down to Your tax returns & documents. Select Show and then select Amend (change) return, and then Amend using TurboTax Online. (If you don't see Your tax returns & documents, select Tax Home on the left.)
  2. Select the reason you’re amending and follow the instructions.
