Deductions & credits
In order to add the charitable donation you forgot to enter, you will need to wait to see if the e-filed return was accepted or rejected.
If the e-filed return was rejected, you can fix the error and add the charitable contribution, then re-transmit your return. Go back into TurboTax and continue your return. The program will show you the errors and have you correct and re-submit.
If the e-filed return was accepted, you will need to file an amended return. Here are the steps to amend your 2015 tax return. Also, you cannot e-file an amended return, you must mail it.
In TurboTax - sign-in to (TurboTax Online) or open (TurboTax Cd/Download/Desktop) your 2015 return.
- Type “amend” in the search bar and hit enter
- Click on “Jump to amend” (see image below)
- This will bring you to the “We’ll help you change (amend) your return” screen (see image below)
- Click “Continue” and answer the questions
