You will have to complete a Form 1040-X if you should have filed Form 1040-NR instead of Form 1040.
If you are filing Form 1040-X on paper to file the correct return, do the following:
- Enter your name, current address, and social security number (SSN) or individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) on the front of Form 1040-X.
- Don’t enter any other information on page 1. Also don’t complete Part I on page 2 of Form 1040-X.
- Enter in Part II—Explanation of Changes the reason you are filing Form 1040-X.
- Complete a 1040-NR- Across the top of the new or corrected return, write “Amended.”
- Attach the new return to the back of Form 1040-X.
