Did you click that big orange button that said “Transmit my return now?” If you did that, you cannot do anything to fix it yet. The IRS will begin to accept/reject 2020 returns on Friday, February 12, 2021. You have to wait for the email that tells you if your return was accepted or rejected. If you do not see an email, check your spam folder.

You cannot change or add anything on the return that you just e-filed, nor can you stop it. It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox on the corner.

If you left out a W-2, a 1099G, or a dependent, or a 1099 etc…DO NOT change your return while it is “pending.” The changes will go nowhere.

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 tax return 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 have to be able to work from that return exactly the way it was when it was e-filed originally. You will need to use a form called a 1040X. 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

thank you so much that’s a huge help. i’m 18 and filing taxes for the first time and my dad who’s much older rushed me into sending them early and i worked at a restaurant for a month and just forgot about it so i mailed my tax forms in. i get what your saying about waiting and see and i appreciate your well informed answer. i have another question as well. Since my dads older my parents made me a ‘dependent?’ i think i don’t know the terms but basically my dads retired and i receive SSA checks monthly and i also received my tax form on that and it was too late but is that needing to be applied to my fed tax form as well? i’m guessing yes but it’s a weird situation so i can’t find a lot of information anywhere so i really have no idea

@df02f57804c9 On your own tax return -- in My Info---you should say that you CAN be claimed as someone else's dependent----your answer to that question is YES. And---the SSA1099 is supposed to be included on your tax return. So if you end up having to amend make sure that you enter that SSA1099.

Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security (SSA1099 and 1099RRB) to enter your SSA1099.
