topic I can't amend my return because it says my SSN does not match, but my SSN is correct. in After you file https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/after-you-file/discussion/i-can-t-amend-my-return-because-it-says-my-ssn-does-not-match-but-my-ssn-is-correct/01/2147781#M547640 When I first filed, I mistyped my SSN, I then corrected it and my return was accepted. Now I need to go back and amend my return, but it won't let me e-File because it says my SSN does not match the original form. I'm assuming it's checking against the first attempt which was rejected before I corrected the typo, but because of this I can't amend my return.

When it is e-filed, then the social security number will be checked against the IRS files and it will be rejected.&nbsp;&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><A href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/amending/help/how-to-amend-change-or-correct-a-return-you-already-filed/00/25588" target="_blank"><SPAN style="font-size:9.75pt"><SPAN style="font-family:&quot;Open Sans&quot;">How to Amend</SPAN></SPAN></A></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><a href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3962962">@afrodriguez002</a></P> Mon, 29 Mar 2021 19:50:32 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/after-you-file/discussion/re-i-can-t-amend-my-return-because-it-says-my-ssn-does-not-match-but-my-ssn-is-correct/01/2148826#M547911 MaryM428 2021-03-29T19:50:32Z Re: I can't amend my return because it says my SSN does not match, but my SSN is correct. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/after-you-file/discussion/re-i-can-t-amend-my-return-because-it-says-my-ssn-does-not-match-but-my-ssn-is-correct/01/2149223#M548016 <P>I amended with the same typo, but my amend was accepted.
