How to Amend a Tax Return

If you made a mistake and already filed your tax return, rest assured, you can still make changes. However, you must file an amended tax return, also known as a Form 1040X. This form will indicate all the changes you make to the tax return accepted by the IRS.

If you have a current year tax return, you can amend a tax return right from your status page. This is located on the “Amend a Return” tab.

On the other hand, if you’re filing a prior year tax return, contact our customer service representatives to assist you in the process. Typically, you will need to provide us with a copy of your original accepted tax return. Then, you will simply enter your tax information that has your updated changes as if you are filing a normal tax return.

As a reminder, there are different fees associated to amend a tax return. You can take a look at the pricing here. Check out our blog on “20 Facts About Filing an Amended Prior Year Tax Return“.
