I filed my taxes wrong

If you filed your tax return wrong, you can amend it. However, please pay attention to the following 3 things before amending your return:

 

  • First, make sure you got your refund or paid your taxes due from the originally filed return; you want to make sure the government doesn’t get confused with your money, so the original return needs to be all squared away before you amend it.
    • Second, print a copy of your original return and have it with you before you start to amend your return in TurboTax. Trust us; this is really important.
  • Third, you can amend this year’s return only with this year’s version of TurboTax. If you want to amend your return from a prior year, use that year’s version of TurboTax.

 

To start your amended return, go back into TurboTax, open the return that you already sent in, and on the first page you see, click on the link to amend your return.

 

Please review the link below on how to amend your federal tax return. Please ensure you select the correct product and follow the instructions included in this link.
