After you file

I did not go into this detail because it is too late to do anything about it .

If an error was made IRS has to reconcile it.

I suspect most amended returns are submitted with errors.

That is why amended returns take six months or more.

 

I helped my brother-in-law with his amendment but made an error on the dependent section.

I helped my niece with her now-in-process amendment but later found out another amendment is needed

due to a different error on her original return.
