Do not amend your return.

 

If you already filed your income tax return before the American Rescue Act was passed, you do not need to do anything.  The IRS will be refunding affected taxpayers for the taxes paid on the first $10,200 of unemployment income if you met the requirements as detailed in the link below. 

 

Unemployment claimed on returns already filed.
