Amend my taxes

[Grannykaye 4]

I put the wrong amount on the earned income credit line. I put the amount of stimulus money I received on that line. Is it to late to correct it?

I need to correct a mistake on my taces

The IRS will correct EIC and stimulus mistakes. It will take a while for all the cross checking. You may need to file an amended return if it isn't straightened out once they send you a refund. 

If necessary, I would recommend you e-file an amended return as soon as the original return is completely finished- all payments have cleared the banks, E-filing will shorten the refund delay. Please:

• Save a copy of the original return before doing an amended return.
• See how to file an amended return.
• Follow your amend at track an amended return 
• See Can I e-file my amended state return? or I need to amend my state return.
