I have already filed my taxes but completely forgot that my 20 year old daughter was a full time student last year.  Should I do an amendment to my taxes or just let her file on her own?

    If your return has already been accepted by the IRS, you will need to file an amended return to add your daughter's education expenses. However, you will need to wait until your original return has been processed and you receive your refund (if applicable) to do so. Please view the amendment instructions in the TurboTax FAQ.

     

    Note: You can prepare your amended return using the TurboTax software, but you must mail the completed return(s).
