How do I amend my 2024 Iowa state tax return to correct the health insurance deduction?

Due to an error, some Iowa taxpayers received the health insurance deduction when they did not meet the requirements. The program erroneously included the health insurance deduction despite the Iowa taxable income being $100,000 or more.

As a result, some customers potentially underpaid their Iowa state tax liability.
