After you file

If TurboTax identified an error in Box 1 of your 1099-INT data after you filed your return, you will need to amend your return. Here’s how to proceed:

  1. Wait for Acceptance: Ensure your original return has been accepted by the IRS (or mailed if you filed a paper return).
  2. Use the Same TurboTax Account: Log in to the same TurboTax account you used to file your original return.
  3. Open Your Return: Log in to TurboTax and open your current tax return.
  4. Start the Amendment Process: Navigate to the “Federal Taxes” tab, then “Other Tax Situations.” Select “Amend a Return” and follow the prompts to start the amendment process.
  5. Correct the Error: Delete the incorrect 1099-INT entry
    1. Go to Income” and select “Interest on 1099-INT.”
    2. Find the incorrect entry and delete it.
    3. Re-enter the correct information from your 1099-INT form.
  6. Review and File the Amended Return: Review your amended return to ensure all information is correct.
  7.  Follow the prompts to file the amended return. Note that TurboTax does not support e-filing for amended returns; you will need to print, sign, and mail it to the IRS.
