If you filed your 2024 tax return already but realized you missed some information, you can amend your return by filing Form 1040-X.
An amended return is necessary for things like, forgetting to claim taxable income, or claiming the wrong tax filing status.
But before filing your amended return, ensure the IRS has already processed your original return. This will help ensure the IRS doesn’t get your original and amended returns mixed up. The “Where’s My Refund?” tool on IRS.gov is the most reliable and convenient way to track your refund. You can access it directly at: https://www.irs.gov/refunds.
Be sure to attach any documents or tax forms that support your changes. And check to see if you have to amend your state return. Contact your tax advisor for assistance.
