Question: I can only do my 2021 taxes once my corrected amendments for 2019 and 2020 are done due to rental depreciation, etc.
- No, you do not have to wait. You can do your 2021 taxes correctly with the corrected information now. You do not have to wait until the amendments are completed and/or processed.
Question: So the question is: what refund/payment should I plug into this box? The refund/payment I ORIGINALLY made on 2020 return OR the refund/payment I made on the AMEDMENT?
- Add the refund from the original return and the refund from the first amended return together to account for the full and complete refund you should have received on those two returns. You assume they have been processed even though the first amendment may not be yet.
- NOTE: Also, make sure to mark at the top of your Form 1040-X '2nd Amendment' so the IRS knows there is another in case they have not processed the first amendment yet. They are in a state of tremendous backlog at the moment.
