How do I amend my federal tax return for a prior year?
Things to remember before you amend your return:
- You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
- You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
- Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.
- The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
- Only make changes to the areas of your return that need amending.
- You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment
