Can I refile my tax return

Please explain what you mean by "re-file."    Did you already e-file a 2025 tax return?   What happened?  Why do you think you need to re-file?

Can I refile my tax return

No, not once you have submitted it. Did you make an error or why are you asking about filing again? 

 

If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been filed, you should follow these guidelines. 

 

  • You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
  • You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
  • Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.
  • The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
  • Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected.
  • You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment

Can I refile my tax return

I received a late 1099-DIV from one funds.  I've already e-filed for 2025 and need to refile.

Can I refile my tax return

@198370 You do Not 'Refile" a tax return that already has been filed and accepted by the IRS.  You amend the tax return.

 

The Form 1040-X for amending a 2025 federal tax return is estimated to be available in TurboTax on 02/25/2026

 

An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return.


Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.
