What do I do if I made a typo on the name of my tax return form? Do I need an amendment form to correct it? My return has already been accepted. What should I do?

If the typo affected the computation of your return, you'll need to amend.

If the typo affected the computation of your return, you'll need to amend.

Please see the TurboTax Help article "Do I need to amend?" to see what circumstances might trigger the need for filing an amended return.

However, if it was a simple typo and the IRS accepted your return, you probably don't need to take any action. The IRS has verified the information that it actually needs to process your return.
