Will you redo my return as it's missing a capital loss which will in effect increase my refund?

The loss was incurred in 2018 from a sale that was made
by Merril Lynch at my request?

You can amend your own return. Just add in your loss.

Instructions for amending your 2018 tax return will be available after the IRS releases the current Form 1040X.

You can amend returns that have been accepted by the IRS. If your return is pending, you won't be able to make any changes until it's accepted or rejected by the IRS. If you don't know your e-file status, we can help you check it.

Select a tax year for specific amending instructions.

Keep in mind: You have 3 years from the date you filed your return (or 2 years after you paid the tax due, whichever is later) to file an amended return, which means you don't have to get it done by the April 15 filing deadline.
