1040-X

millerhc — Wed, 31 Mar 2021 20:52:39 GMT

Please help: I am so lost and confused that I am afraid to try any thing and make it worse. I will try to go back to the beginning.

1-I started to make the corrections for the late arriving of a1099-div,1099-B from one source and a1099-R from my bank (3 corrections or additions). I did this before 1040-X came out. I realized this may be a mistake, I so tried return my 1040-SR to what it was when I filed.

2-When I got the 1040-X the refund did not go back to zero, It said I had a 44 refund but then the amount shown as being applied to 2021 taxes was reduced by same amount. I thought I corrected this on the original Federal Carryover worksheet. I entered the missed 1099s again it showed a higher refund with the carryover reduced by the same amount. WAS THIS MY FIRST MISTAKE? RATHER THAN TRYING TO GET MY REFUND TO ZERO i SHOULD HAVE KEPT WORKING TO THE END OF FORM??

3-When I enter my "A" sales from the bank. ("A" sales were the only ones I missed on the original filing) I entered "D" and "E" again (I think this was my 2 mistake) The answer to my question Was to Check Form 8949 see if I deleted them. I am not sure which 8949 they were referring to the original on filing or one crated with the 1040-X I have tried entering and deleting so many times I no know where I stand with the 1040-X. Tank for any help you can give. This is the first time I had to fill out a 1040-X

It depends. I will try to work on this with you to see if we can eliminate all of the 1040X and get the return back to zero. Let me ask a few questions to get started and I will be with you to get this resolved.

Is this Turbo Tax online or Desktop?
When did you submit your original return to be filed.
let me know if you are here and we will continually dialogue. I haven't done anything like this before so lucky you. You are the first.

Click this link for info on How to Undo an Amendment.

Only enter the changed items; you are correct that you didn't need to enter anything from your 1099-B that was entered in your original return.
