Question

Amended tax return vs pending return already

Hiya! Sorry to bother but I was told to make an amended return for my state because of the ARP and I had unemployment... but I’m still waiting for EITC to review my information to receive my state return which they said could take up to 90 days to process. Should I still make an amended return or will it mess up my pending return?

Wait until the state finishes processing your return—and you receive your pending state refund—before filing an amended return. 

 

Some states are automatically adjusting returns for the federal unemployment exemption. If you state is not, filing an amended return before your original return is final may mess up your pending return or further delay your refund.
