I am confused by the responses - does the amendment (1040x) need to be filed or can the Form 8606 be filed on it's own for tax year 2019. I have pretty much the same situation - I have filed Form 8606 every year since 2009, but for some reason forgot to report my non-deductible contributions to my Traditional IRA in 2019 (I think because I opened a new Roth IRA in 2019 and reported those contributions, which is another story because I ended up with an excess contribution = $1,485 contributed to my traditional IRA). I know I need to report the $1,485 non-deductible contributions made in 2019, but not sure if that is via a full-out amendment of my 2019 1040 or if I can just file a 2019 Form 8606 on it's own. After that I need to deal with removing the excess contributions for 2019. Thank you.
