How can I correct an error after already filing for the taxes?

If you already filed your return you can't make any changes. Wait until the IRS either rejects or accepts your return. If your return is rejected, you will be able to fix it and

resubmit it.

If your return is accepted, wait until your return has been fully processes and you received your refund ( if you are expecting a refund ), then amend your return.

Here's how you amend your return:

Sign in to you account.
Scroll down to Your tax return & documents , select 2019 and then Amend (change) return.
Select Amend using TurboTax Online.
Follow the instructions, your refund or tax due will change to 0. This is normal on amended returns.

Amended return can't be e-file, you need to print it and mail it in.

I filed free with you and cannot recover to fix error. I filed for 2019. I put 12.812 for income instead of the correct amount of 13.812. I have not received my stimulus check. What do I do. My email is [email address removed] Phone number [phone number removed]. .

You can regain your stimulus check this year on the Recovery Rebate Credit form. You might need to open it if it does not show up in the forms column. Ours is right under our W2s.

I need to amend a return from 2019. I used TT on line. I followed the instructions but it’s making me download the states. I need to amend one state and federal, why is it trying to make my purchase the second state again when it’s a non resident state. I get the error message 190 when I try to open the return to work on it.
