Thank you so much for this tutorial. Recently, I learned from the IRS publication 6209, that the W-2 form is class five. Classfive is a gift and not income according to this IRS publication. How do I place this in the admin meant 1099X form? Please help. God bless you. 2:16
Hey thanks for the great tutorial. I have a question: In my case, income was not reported correctly however, all said subsequent calculations on the form were calculated correctly. IRS sent in their own adjustments sending a much higher refund and I did not cash said check. For line 18, should I put the adjusted amount (IRS) or the original amount I reported? Thanks for all the help
I would go with whatever the correct amount is. I've had the government send too high of a payment/refund in the past and they always make sure to get their money back over time
Thanks so much for this video! Would you be able to guide me as to where I enter a 1099-G tax form information for UI benefits received please? Much appreciated.
Don't call TRA or PRIORITY TAX relief - they're CROOKS - once they hv ur money - they dont gaf Abt u - UNLESS its to squeeze MORE $$ outta ya! You're better off dealing & negotiating with IRS URSELF!
Just the 1040x is all you need to send they already have your first copy.And if you have any supporting documents as ex:a w2 left off or 1099, or a kid left off, or a mistake that is more than $50 dollars left off, ect.
Hi, Thank you for your descriptive video. I have a few questions. If there is a nonrefundable education credit under Form 8863, on which line and column(s) should it be entered? And on which line and column(s) should credits for qualifying children and other dependents under schedule 8812 (Form 1040) be entered? Thanks.
Thank you for such a valueble information ! My accountant put the wrong number for startup cost amortization. He started counting from the wrong month. Can I amend the return myself by filling out 1040X and attach the correct amortization sheet ? and how do I submit the form ?, or do I have to do it through tax software like Turbotax ? or do I always have to go back to my accountant to amend ? *The return was for year 2019, which was done electronically.
So you could do it yourself or through your accountant. If you fill it out yourself, then you can mail it in to the location that corresponds with where you live (noted on the instructions). Your accountant should file it for you since they are the one that messed up. I’m not sure if TurboTax could do it since you didn’t originally file through them
If you haven’t filed it, then you’ll just file a regular 1040 and enter the applicable tax year at the top. Just be aware of the fines/penalties you’ll be liable for when you file late
Should I include gain/loss from stocks in my gross income? Also if I had a deduction from an employer paid 401k should I had it to the standard deduction (box 2)?
Thanks for this video! If I followed your video and the IRS says "we could not match your Form 1040-X, line 1 because you did not include all supporting forms and schedules" what should I do next? For context I forgot to include all my 1099 freelance income on my 2021 return. Additionally I filed them on the wrong schedule following free tax software. I amended all of these error on a 1040-X, included my original 1099s & W2s, Schedule SE, Schedule C, Schedule 1, and original return as substantiation. Is there something I missed?
Great video. I filed online through HRBlock...I could not see all forms until I paid and electronically filed. On the 2021 Recovery Rebate form I saw what looks like an error, because amount is 0 as opposed to $2,800 for filing jointly. This is on a 1040-SR.....any thoughts on this being a software error on HRBlocks end? If so, do I need to file a 1040-X ? If so, what line would the $2,800 go?? Thoughts.......??

Well, in the 1040-X instruction it says " you can't change ....from MFJ to MFS after due date". My question is : can someone change from Single to MFS after due date? Suppose, I am US citizen and got married in November 2021 in a foreign country and my wife never came to the US and doesn't have a SSN. I filed tax return as single in 2021 because of lack of knowledge and difficulties for filing as MFS online /e-file which doesn't let to file as Married if spouse doesn’t have a SSN.

In a situation like mine where I forgot to add a W2, is the information filled out in column B straight from the W2 that was forgotten ? Ive noticed there no cents being used. I don't want to put the wrong info...
I accidentally marked that someone can claim me as a dependent. How do I amend that (no one can claim me as a dependent) using the 1040x form? I don’t need to change any values or anything so do I just enter the original values for both columns A and C?
Honestly I'm not sure about that one, for free advice that will be correct I'd give the IRS helpline a call. It'll take a while to get through, but they are remarkably helpful
I received two 1099Rs after I had already submitted and received back my tax return. How do I amend? Pretty sure I have to send some of it back to federal and state.
What if you have to file a 1040x to claim a first stimulus? Nothing really needs amended, I just am trying to get my brother his first check he didn't receive. Do I just explain that in the explanation box? Thank you for your time.
That’s a really good question and I think you’re right that you would explain what you’re trying to do in plain English. Unfortunately I’m not sure exactly how that would work
Hey bro thanks for your video. I have the same problem but I have to add income from nfts. Do I use the same method and just calculate how much I sold the nfts for. or do I have to add a 8949 form? your advice is greatly appreciated.
There isn’t enough legal guidance on how NFTs are taxed for me to feel comfortable giving advice on that. Filing form 8949 would make sense to me, but that doesn’t mean the IRS will understand it that way. I would call a CPA in your area to make sure you do it right
Hi how are you doing ? I have a question I can’t find my 1040 form and I asked my tax preparer and he said he doesn’t have it , how can I fill 1040X without it I need help please.
Hey I made $30,000 from selling solar panels in 2021 and I didn't write anything off. I got a letter from the IRS a few months ago saying I owe $9,600 in back taxes. I came to a payment arrangement to pay that back by April 15, 2024. I called the IRS yesterday and they said I could file a 1040x. The only thing is in your video you say to put everything from "1040" onto column A but my employer does not want to mail me my 1099. Where on the IRS website can I access that ?
Great content it answer many questions but I still have one I can’t find the answer, maybe I’m lucky here and someone could answer this; I’m amending 2020 changing only the filing status from HOH to MFJ everything is on the 1040X and also marked the correct filling status MFJ but once on 1040X form I see my AGI only, so my question is am I supposed put on line A my AGI and my husband together or if that something that he IRS will compute once I file if Im only changing filling status. I will appreciate any input or if not clear please lmk I need an answer so bad and the IRS keeps disconnecting my call.
Hello, Sir/ I incorrectly put my son's SSN, and the IRS changed my status to single from head of household.I ended up paying the IRS money that I owed due to the change. Do I put the money on line 16? Your answer would be highly appreciated. Thank you.
So I sent in my tax return for last year but I forgot to do my deductibles so it came out as me owing. I sent in my amended tax return and I should not owe if it gets accepted and it says it is being processed online. My question is do I have to pay 💰 what I originally owed while I wait for the amended return to be processed? Or do I just wait.
so all i did wrong was chose the wrong option for claiming the child tax credit. I mistakenly chose "other dependents. Do i have to do the other categories if there are no other mistakes to fix? No extra W-2's just the child tax mistake.
@@APennyPinchersGuide thanks for replying. I’ve already filed my taxes though, and I was going to make an amendment. So I do not have to enter dividends income on the 1040X than? I just adjust gross income on the 1040X to an additional $160?
I don’t know if anyone can answer this but I forgot to add my sons college expense from the 1098T from 2021,he did pay for books which was over 300,is this a simple amendment I can do in this form?
I would think so, but I have no experience with this specific issue. It may be worth having a CPA look it over depending on how much the expenses came out to be
No changes needed on first page . Need to change ONLY dependent and claim child tax credit. Do I need to change anything on first page if no change and will i get my child tax credit if i only fill out questions on page two?
Referencing page six of the 1040-X instructions, if you are only changing what you stated above, then you'll only need to complete lines 6-23 on the first page in addition to the changes in dependent status on page two of form 1040-X
I had the same issue, my university sent the 1098-T late. So, on Line 15 from 1040-X, you check mark 'other' then put 1098-T. Then add the amount on Column B and C. Hope that helps!
I waited til the last day to file my taxes (my fault) I accidently made a small error and now my refund on my new amended tax form is $1 less than the amount from my original form does this mean when the IRS processes it I will owe them $1?
That's an excellent question and I unfortunately do not have the answer to it. I would hope that the IRS would would send you a refund check for $1 less. But if you've already received it form your original refund, then yes you will probably have to pay the IRS the $1 difference 😐
Thank you for your video first of all. I have a question though, I filed my taxes through TurboTax this year and realized a few accidental errors that I’ve since corrected (overstated my cost basis for crypto purchases, miscalculated first time around.) TurboTax has filed the amended Federal return for me, but I need to mail in my state (CA) return. They provided me with the tax documents (amended) and a 1040X form Before I send these in, do I need to do anything to them? The numbers look filled out, there are a few spots for signatures (which seem to all just be confirming that my amendments are true). Wish I could e-file them like the federal return :/ Thanks for reading, I could really use assistance, I’m kind of nervous about correcting my discrepancies. They were made honestly but I don’t want some big boy audit or anything just because the state hasn’t received my amendments.
@@818deadboys I would love to give you a pointer on this one, but I'm not familiar with California taxes and don't want to misdirect you. I would see how much it would cost to get the turbotax live as an add on to have an accountant look over your state filing for you. Sorry I couldn't be of more help
How do I file one with the information on a tax transcript? Our tax lady does not have a copy of the 1040 she filed and the tax transcript is so confusing.

I owe to irs 30 dollars after I file amended tax return but they already withdraw from my bank account but it’s still showing I owe them 30 bucks in line. 20 in 1040x form is it due to some error or is it something to be concerned about since I already taken that amount from my bank account

So I see several problems with my tax return like the ors crediting me 3500 instead of 3600 for care act credit and leaving off my child dependants ..also who should be on my statements as the deposit from IRS say? Please help me out
In a situation like mine where I forgot to add a W2, is the information filled out in column B straight from the W2 that was forgotten ? Ive noticed there no cents being used. I don't want to put the wrong info...
so, how would i fix a mistake on line 35a on my 1040? i mistakenly made it to where i was getting 0$ back, would i need to fill out a 1040-x?
if we need to put paypal info and dont want to get audit what are best steps while filing amdend tax return
If you're worried about a potential audit, then I would reach out to a CPA in your area to get the best and most specific advice
I accidentally marked that someone can claim me as a dependent. How do I amend that (no one can claim me as a dependent) using the 1040x form? I don’t need to change any values or anything so do I just enter the original values for both columns A and C?
Honestly I'm not sure about that one, for free advice that will be correct I'd give the IRS helpline a call. It'll take a while to get through, but they are remarkably helpful
how did he in up with 27400 if he subtracted line 2 and 1? that's incorrect right?
Great catch! It should be $27,500 instead
I received two 1099Rs after I had already submitted and received back my tax return. How do I amend? Pretty sure I have to send some of it back to federal and state.
For Row 3, Column A: Shouldn't that be 27500 instead of 27400 (Line 1 40050 - Line 2 12550 = 27500)?
What if you have to file a 1040x to claim a first stimulus? Nothing really needs amended, I just am trying to get my brother his first check he didn't receive. Do I just explain that in the explanation box? Thank you for your time.
That’s a really good question and I think you’re right that you would explain what you’re trying to do in plain English. Unfortunately I’m not sure exactly how that would work
@@APennyPinchersGuide Thank you for answering. I appreciate it.
Hey bro thanks for your video. I have the same problem but I have to add income from nfts. Do I use the same method and just calculate how much I sold the nfts for. or do I have to add a 8949 form? your advice is greatly appreciated.
There isn’t enough legal guidance on how NFTs are taxed for me to feel comfortable giving advice on that.
Filing form 8949 would make sense to me, but that doesn’t mean the IRS will understand it that way. I would call a CPA in your area to make sure you do it right
Thanks for your response. If it were you would you amend or would you not worry until next year maybe there is more tax clarity. Thanks again.
@@alahanjimenez I would always amend and make sure my tax filings are as accurate as possible, you never want to give the IRS an excuse to fine you
Hi how are you doing ? I have a question I can’t find my 1040 form and I asked my tax preparer and he said he doesn’t have it , how can I fill 1040X without it I need help please.
Hey I made $30,000 from selling solar panels in 2021 and I didn't write anything off. I got a letter from the IRS a few months ago saying I owe $9,600 in back taxes. I came to a payment arrangement to pay that back by April 15, 2024. I called the IRS yesterday and they said I could file a 1040x. The only thing is in your video you say to put everything from "1040" onto column A but my employer does not want to mail me my 1099. Where on the IRS website can I access that ?
Great content it answer many questions but I still have one I can’t find the answer, maybe I’m lucky here and someone could answer this; I’m amending 2020 changing only the filing status from HOH to MFJ everything is on the 1040X and also marked the correct filling status MFJ but once on 1040X form I see my AGI only, so my question is am I supposed put on line A my AGI and my husband together or if that something that he IRS will compute once I file if Im only changing filling status. I will appreciate any input or if not clear please lmk I need an answer so bad and the IRS keeps disconnecting my call.
How do I deal with lottery winning.
Hello, Sir/ I incorrectly put my son's SSN, and the IRS changed my status to single from head of household.I ended up paying the IRS money that I owed due to the change. Do I put the money on line 16? Your answer would be highly appreciated. Thank you.
So I sent in my tax return for last year but I forgot to do my deductibles so it came out as me owing. I sent in my amended tax return and I should not owe if it gets accepted and it says it is being processed online. My question is do I have to pay 💰 what I originally owed while I wait for the amended return to be processed? Or do I just wait.
Can I efile my 2020 taxes that was mailed..I mis keyed a social security number
Also if the refund amount on amended return and original return is same than what happens?
I’m an international student on F1 visa. I had no income in 2021 and mistakenly filed 1040 instead of 1040 nr. Do I need to file a 1040X?
The IRS give you 3 yrs to submit the form correct?
so all i did wrong was chose the wrong option for claiming the child tax credit. I mistakenly chose "other dependents. Do i have to do the other categories if there are no other mistakes to fix? No extra W-2's just the child tax mistake.
I received, late, a 1009 - D for dividends of $160. Do I enter the same as capital gains?
Dividends are taxed like normal income, so it will be entered in the dividend section on page 1 of your 1040
@@APennyPinchersGuide thanks for replying. I’ve already filed my taxes though, and I was going to make an amendment. So I do not have to enter dividends income on the 1040X than? I just adjust gross income on the 1040X to an additional $160?
How do i file the amended tax rteturn to get the second economic payment of $ 600 for 2020?
I don’t know if anyone can answer this but I forgot to add my sons college expense from the 1098T from 2021,he did pay for books which was over 300,is this a simple amendment I can do in this form?
I would think so, but I have no experience with this specific issue. It may be worth having a CPA look it over depending on how much the expenses came out to be
No changes needed on first page . Need to change ONLY dependent and claim child tax credit. Do I need to change anything on first page if no change and will i get my child tax credit if i only fill out questions on page two?
Referencing page six of the 1040-X instructions, if you are only changing what you stated above, then you'll only need to complete lines 6-23 on the first page in addition to the changes in dependent status on page two of form 1040-X
I forgot to add my 1098-T to my federal return. I'm not sure how to do that on a 1040-X?
I had the same issue, my university sent the 1098-T late. So, on Line 15 from 1040-X, you check mark 'other' then put 1098-T. Then add the amount on Column B and C. Hope that helps!
I waited til the last day to file my taxes (my fault) I accidently made a small error and now my refund on my new amended tax form is $1 less than the amount from my original form does this mean when the IRS processes it I will owe them $1?
That's an excellent question and I unfortunately do not have the answer to it. I would hope that the IRS would would send you a refund check for $1 less. But if you've already received it form your original refund, then yes you will probably have to pay the IRS the $1 difference 😐
Thank you for your video first of all.
I have a question though, I filed my taxes through TurboTax this year and realized a few accidental errors that I’ve since corrected (overstated my cost basis for crypto purchases, miscalculated first time around.)
TurboTax has filed the amended Federal return for me, but I need to mail in my state (CA) return. They provided me with the tax documents (amended) and a 1040X form
Before I send these in, do I need to do anything to them? The numbers look filled out, there are a few spots for signatures (which seem to all just be confirming that my amendments are true). Wish I could e-file them like the federal return :/
Thanks for reading, I could really use assistance, I’m kind of nervous about correcting my discrepancies. They were made honestly but I don’t want some big boy audit or anything just because the state hasn’t received my amendments.
Sorry If the amount of advise asked for in this comment is too grand 🤦🏻♂️ this is the last year I do taxes without an accountant.
@@818deadboys I would love to give you a pointer on this one, but I'm not familiar with California taxes and don't want to misdirect you. I would see how much it would cost to get the turbotax live as an add on to have an accountant look over your state filing for you. Sorry I couldn't be of more help
@@APennyPinchersGuide no worries, appreciate the response. Good stuff on this channel 😎👍🏼
@@818deadboys Thanks for the support!
I can’t find where I can submit the form electronically, it says on the irs website that’s it’s now accepting electronically
How do I file one with the information on a tax transcript? Our tax lady does not have a copy of the 1040 she filed and the tax transcript is so confusing.
I have a single-member LLC & just found out I can file my business taxes on my personal forms (Schedule C). Do I show decreases here as qualified business income deductions on the 1040x (amending my original form 1040)?
When you say decreases are you referring to business expenses?
@@APennyPinchersGuide Yes, not much, office supplies/expenses (software).
@@tchims9103 You should be able to do that, just make sure to include you corrected schedule C
I owe to irs 30 dollars after I file amended tax return but they already withdraw from my bank account but it’s still showing I owe them 30 bucks in line. 20 in 1040x form is it due to some error or is it something to be concerned about since I already taken that amount from my bank account
Where did he got the $240 from?
What if line 18 is 0. In other words what if there was no overpayment then what should line 19 be in this scenario?
After My parents finish what do they have to do next??
What do you mean?
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. It was extremely helpful.
You're very welcome!

I forgot to add to our original taxes that we had a net gain of $319 in stocks. But, how would I figure out the tax liability for that low of an amount?
Thanks
Thank you!! This was so helpful!
You are so welcome!
What if you put wrong status?
Then you’ll fill out everything the same as your original 1040, but make sure you select the changed filing status section
@@APennyPinchersGuide Thanks!!
I want to amend by adding a dependent, no dollar amount change..do I still fill out lines 1-23?
Referencing page six of the 1040-X instructions, if you are only changing what you stated above, then you'll only need to complete lines 6-23 on the first page in addition to the changes in dependent status on page two of form 1040-X
@@APennyPinchersGuide since I have dependents and add a dependent what would I put on line 15 for column c? would I just put what I have on the original 1040 or make a change on my own?
@@yolandaflores4253 if there are not any changes then you would enter what was on your original 1040. If you are eligible for extra tax credits because of the additional dependent, then you would input what your correct number is.
I sent an amended return for 2018 2019 and 2020 on January 31 of 2022.
2019 and 2020 are showing up on the website but my 2018 has not shown up yet. Have tried to set up an appointment at a irs center but have been hung up multiple times due to too many callers at the time. Should i resend my 2018 form?
If you sent it through the mail I wouldn’t resend it yet. Anecdotally, I’ve seen it take over a year to get a refund back from an amended return
@@APennyPinchersGuide ok thank you will wait longer
Let's say on last year's return that you put in estimated tax payments but you NEVER owned a business, sponsorship, or construction, meaning that it doesn't apply to you. How do you correct that on the amended tax return?
Paying estimated tax payments is something you can always do regardless of whether or not you own a business. If you overpaid taxes then you'll receive that amount back as a refund
Can I use this form to file an amendment for 2022?
You sure can
Do make an amendment if I miss spelled a dependents name?
That would be the proper thing to do
Section A #3 AND #5 should be $27,500 ? It was very helpful though.
Good catch! Thanks for pointing it out, I completely missed that 👍
If you get a fine then do the 1098 F..
Thank u I needed this❤
Talking waaaay too fast. I received a 1099-C form (cancellation of Debt after AARP filed electronically for me in 2023. They said it would not affect my income tax so they didn't bother correcting it cause it was too late since they already sent my income tax return in. I called the IRS today and a lady said to use the 1040X. I do not know how to fill it out. I would like to get this completed BEFORE the tax season starts for 2023 returns on January 29, 2024. Can someone help me? TY, Marc
Excellent info! Thank you!
