Can I make corrections to a 1099r

Once you have submitted your tax return to TurboTax for filing, you cannot make any changes to it. You must now wait until the return is sent to the IRS and either accepted or rejected. If rejected, you can make the needed changes and resubmit it. If accepted, you must wait until the IRS processes it and then if necessary you can prepare and file an amended return.

MY RETURN IS IN PENDING—what does that mean?

 

Did you e-file?  Did you click that big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”  

 

If so, your return is now in “pending” on a server.  Do not try to change anything while your return is in pending.

 

Later in January the IRS will begin to accept/reject e-files.   

 

Watch your emails—including your spam folder—for the notice about whether your e-file has been accepted or rejected.  

 

If your return is rejected you will be able to make corrections before re-filing.   

 

If the return you e-filed is accepted you will have to wait until it has been fully processed and then amend it to fix any mistakes or omissions.  It has been taking the IRS six to nine months—sometimes longer—to process amended returns.  

 

 If you e-filed your state return there will be another email later that tells you if the state was accepted or rejected.

 

WARNING:   Do not try to change anything on your return while it is pending.
