Did you submit your tax return and then realize you made a mistake? Perhaps pieces of information were forgotten. Now you may be wondering if you need to file an amended return. The IRS states that taxpayers usually don’t need to file amended returns for certain issues. The IRS will correct any math errors while processing tax returns and notify the taxpayers. If a form or schedule is missing, the tax agency will send a letter requesting it. Certain other changes, however, require that an amended return be filed. They include: a change of filing status, missing income, incorrect deductions or credits, and inaccurate tax liability. Contact us for help. © 2024
