IRS Form 1040-X | How to File an Amended Tax Return

IRS Form 1040X Amended Tax Return Instructions: www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc308
If you're asking how to amend a tax return, you're in the right spot!
There are many different reasons you might need to file an amended tax return with IRS Form 1040-X: a simple miscalculation on your part or maybe your work sent you a late W-2C, but regardless of the reason I want to help you do it correctly.
While the IRS states that if there is a simple math mistake or even a missing schedule that's required, they might make the corrections themselves, don't leave it to chance. When it comes to taxes, the IRS doesn't play around and an innocent mistake on your part might result in thousands of dollars in fees and fines if you don't correct it.
If you used a tax prep software or a CPA, it should be as easy as providing the correct information and they will fill out the 1040-X for you. But, if you filed your initial tax return by yourself, then that's what this video is here for.
Fortunately filling out Form 1040-X isn't that difficult and you've already have half the information you need to do so from the Form 1040 you originally filed!

I will appreciate any input or if not clear please lmk I need an answer so bad and the IRS keeps disconnecting my call.

For context I forgot to include all my 1099 freelance income on my 2021 return. Additionally I filed them on the wrong schedule following free tax software. I amended all of these error on a 1040-X, included my original 1099s & W2s, Schedule SE, Schedule C, Schedule 1, and original return as substantiation. Is there something I missed?

    So you could do it yourself or through your accountant. If you fill it out yourself, then you can mail it in to the location that corresponds with where you live (noted on the instructions). Your accountant should file it for you since they are the one that messed up. I’m not sure if TurboTax could do it since you didn’t originally file through them

This is on a 1040-SR.....any thoughts on this being a software error on HRBlocks end? If so, do I need to file a 1040-X ? If so, what line would the $2,800 go?? Thoughts.......??

    Well, in the 1040-X instruction it says " you can't change ....from MFJ to MFS after due date". My question is : can someone change from Single to MFS after due date? Suppose, I am US citizen and got married in November 2021 in a foreign country and my wife never came to the US and doesn't have a SSN. I filed tax return as single in 2021 because of lack of knowledge and difficulties for filing as MFS online /e-file which doesn't let to file as Married if spouse doesn’t have a SSN. I correctly paper filed MFS for 2022. So I need to correct / change the status from Single to MFS (everything else remains same) for 2021 only. Can I change status from Single to MFS for 2021 by using 1040-X now? Thanks!

    Referencing page six of the 1040-X instructions, if you are only changing what you stated above, then you'll only need to complete lines 6-23 on the first page in addition to the changes in dependent status on page two of form 1040-X

    I had the same issue, my university sent the 1098-T late. So, on Line 15 from 1040-X, you check mark 'other' then put 1098-T. Then add the amount on Column B and C. Hope that helps!

    I owe to irs 30 dollars after I file amended tax return but they already withdraw from my bank account but it’s still showing I owe them 30 bucks in line. 20 in 1040x form is it due to some error or is it something to be concerned about since I already taken that amount from my bank account

    Thank you for your video first of all. I have a question though, I filed my taxes through TurboTax this year and realized a few accidental errors that I’ve since corrected (overstated my cost basis for crypto purchases, miscalculated first time around.) TurboTax has filed the amended Federal return for me, but I need to mail in my state (CA) return. They provided me with the tax documents (amended) and a 1040X form Before I send these in, do I need to do anything to them? The numbers look filled out, there are a few spots for signatures (which seem to all just be confirming that my amendments are true). Wish I could e-file them like the federal return :/ Thanks for reading, I could really use assistance, I’m kind of nervous about correcting my discrepancies. They were made honestly but I don’t want some big boy audit or anything just because the state hasn’t received my amendments.
