    Amending your return means filing a new form, 1040X. This is only required in certain situations.   Amend if you already mailed your return (or the government accepted your e-file) and:

     

    • You need to report a tax form you forgot about or received after filing (most commonly a W-2 or 1099).
    • You received a corrected tax form after filing (the corrected box is checked) and the new info changes your refund or tax due amount.
    • You forgot to report income or claim dependents, deductions, or credits.
    • You accidentally claimed dependents, deductions, or credits you're not eligible for.
    • You made an error that affects your bottom line, such as reporting income or deductions in 2024 that should've been claimed in a prior tax year (in that case, you'll need to amend all affected tax years).
    • You need to change your filing status (for example, you want to change from Single to Head of Household).
    • We instructed you to amend because of a program error (uncommon).

    Not quite the answer I was looking for… I would like to know whether TurboTax has made the changes regarding hurricane Ian in 2022 that will allow deductions made without regard to the 10% AGI minimum and whether or not you are actually using itemized deductions… this was passed within the last month and signed by the president

    The 2024 program has been updated to reflect the change in Hurricane Ian deduction status.  The 2022 program will follow but it may take a little time to update.
