Question

I submitted the wrong information when submitted my taxes. I went off my paystub and not my actual W2. I would like to resubmit my information and re-file?

Was the return accepted?  Has it been fully processed?  AFTER the return has been fully processed (not before) you can amend it to correct the mistakes.

 

How do I amend my 2019 TurboTax Online return?

 

 

A 1040X cannot be e-filed.  It must be printed and mailed.  It will take about 4 months for the IRS to process an amended return.  It is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it, like UPS or certified mail, so you will know it was received.

Wait about 3 weeks from mailing and you can check the status of your amended return:
