I believe my forms were accepted with a wrong ssn. How do I correct and get credit for 2017 1040-ES submittals?

If you have not filed your tax return, sign into your Turbo Tax account and follow these steps:

1. Click on the Personal Info tab
2. Click on Edit next to the person's name
3. Enter the correct social security number

If you have already filed your tax return, it will likely be rejected due to the incorrect social security number. If it is rejected, please follow the steps listed above to enter the correct social security number and re-submit your return.

3. Scroll down to Other Tax Forms
4. Click Start next to Amend a Return
5. Follow the directions to Amend your return
6. Print and mail your amended return
