Amend Current Year

ellac26 — Sun, 14 Apr 2024 23:48:02 GMT

I need to amend my current year since I need to change my filing status to married filing jointly. My spouse has not filed yet, but mine were already accepted. How can I file my amended return on the desktop version?

You should wait to amend your return until the original return is fully processed. Your husband should file for an extension and pay what he thinks he will owe (if any) together when you amend your return to add him. If you will owe be certain to pay by 4/15/24.

You could prepare a mock return on your desktop version to calculate the total taxes due, then pay directly on the IRS website if needed. Don't forget your state taxes too.

What do you mean by fully processed? What if we don't owe money, do we still need to file an extension?
