Amendment

I filed my W-2 form as a non dependant when I should've been a dependant. Is it too late to fix this?

I filed my W-2 form and I put down that I wasn't a dependent but it turns out I was for most of 2019 at least until September. Can I fix this?

Yes, you can fix this by filing an amended return in TurboTax. Here's how:

In order to file an amended return, make sure that your 2019 return was accepted in TurboTax Online or paper-filed through the mail by the IRS.

To prepare an amended return through TurboTax, follow these steps:

Sign in to TurboTax.
Scroll down to Your tax return & documents (you may need to select Show), select 2019 and then Amend (change) return.
Select Amend using TurboTax Online.
Carefully follow the instructions. Don't worry if your refund changes to $0. This is normal on amended returns.
When finished, we'll give you instructions for printing and mailing your amended return as amendments can't be e-filed.
