topic an amended return shows your tax due. or refund based on... in After you file

I've already filed my taxes, but got a new w-2 from the mail. I also received a 1099-misc with it that I have to pay taxes too. Is there a way to amend my first claim?

You cannot change or add anything on the return that you just e-filed. It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox

Now you have to wait until the IRS either rejects or accepts your return. If your return is rejected, you will be able to go into your account and make the necessary changes to your income and re-submit your return.

If the IRS accepts your return, however, then you have to wait longer until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund. THEN you can prepare an amended tax return and mail it in. You will be needing to use a form called a 1040X, which becomes available in mid-February. You cannot e-file an amended return. They have to be mailed, and it takes at least 2-3 months for the IRS to process an amended return. Meanwhile, DO NOT go in and start changing anything on your return in the system, or you will make a mess for yourself. Sit tight and wait until you see what the IRS does with the return you just e-filed

My e-file is already accepted by the IRS, but I haven't received my refund. So if I file a 1040X after i get my refund, does the IRS take back my refund until they finish the process?

It will depend on how it all calculates after you add more income. You say you have a W-2, so it will have some taxes withheld, let's hope. But the 1099MIsc will not have taxes withheld and you will owe for that income. I recommend not spending that refund too fast, just in case.

So the 1099misc will be charged later on when the IRS fin...

So the 1099misc will be charged later on when the IRS finishes the process? Is there a way to estimate how much the tax would be for the 1099? I've heard something like only half of the income is taxable?

Self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare will be 15.3%. Beyond that, it is impossible to speculate on what your tax will be on your 1099 and W-2. There are too many variables. When you enter everything-- the 1099Misc and the new W-2 to your 1040X the calculations will be done. This is a lesson in not filing too soon when all of your documents have not arrived.

I see. Yes, it is a lesson. I thought I had all my documents, but this was an unexpected document from a company wide settlement, that I didn't know was going to be sent out. Thank you for your time. You've been very helpful.

an amended return shows your tax due. or refund based on the corrections you make.. It takes into account any money you sent in already to the IRS. Print out the form and look at it and it will be pretty clear.
