I failed to claim a 1098T deduction for my dependent student on my 2020 tax return.  Can/should I file an amended return now?

Unfortunately, it is too late to file an amended 2020 tax return unless you meet one of a few exceptions such as being affected by a Presidentially declared disaster.  The deadline to file an amended return for a refund was 4/15/24.

 

See: When you didn't file a claim within the 3-year or 2-year expiration dates
