So I asked someone else already but yesterday I filed my taxes and e-file my taxes with turbo. Today I got MISC-1099 forms in the mail and now I nedd to file those. The advisor said now I have to see if the IRS rejects or accepts my refund. Then I need to do a tax ammendment to add the 1099 forms. They explained to me that it will take some time so my question is: Would it be okay to just claim my MISC1099 forms on next years tax returns?
No. Generally you will need to claim all income received in the year it was received. You cannot carry income over to the next year.
Here are the steps to Amend:
If you have already filed and have now received an additional 1099-Misc or other information:
If it is rejected, you can simply add the additional 1099-Misc and efile your return again.
If it is accepted and is missing information, you will need to amend your return. Please note that Form 1040X (Amended tax return) will not be available until after 2/12/2020.
