Hello! When doing my taxes, I forgot to include a small loss in a stock I invested in in 2022; I invested $35, and lost $1.39. Should I change my return to include that?

Probably not.

 

Have you tried entering the transaction to see if it would change your tax liability?

Did you realize the loss?  That is did you sell it in 2023?  I would wait and see if the IRS sends you a bill.  They might see the whole sale as a gain and not know you had a loss.  Then you can amend to report it.  But a $1.39 loss shouldn’t affect your return.
