Retirement tax questions

  You cannot just file again with the 1099R.       You will need to amend the return you filed originally to add that 1099R.

 

 

Wait until your original return has been fully processed before you amend, and make sure you have saved a pdf of the original return before you amend. (If you do not save it as a pdf, the amended return will overwrite the original, and the original will be lost forever)
