Question

In 2019 my wife and I forgot to add a 1099R, This caused us to pay more in both Federal and State Taxes. How do I amend my 2020 taxes so we can complete 2021 Taxes

    Was the 1099-R for tax year 2019? Then you must amend your 2019 tax return (and not 2020).

     

    Please see this TurboTax article for instructions on how to amend your tax return in TurboTax.

     

    Any changes in tax on your amended return would not affect your 2021 tax return. And you can continue to prepare and file your 2021 tax return.

    I did amend the 2019 successfully.  The amended return cause us to pay more taxes for both federal and state. Paying more taxes should affect the 2020 taxes.

    Back taxes paid for year 2019 are not deductible and do not affect your 2020 tax return.
