5 July 2016

When using tax software to complete a 1040-X, make sure you know what you are doing.

This year I submitted my taxes electronically with H&R Block and then made an amendment about a month later.  Apparently, if one does not click the right link, one could edit the original taxes and somehow merge that 1040 into a 1040-X.  The IRS did not figure this out, but they did calmly ignore my amendment and never tell me anything.  H&R Block customer service chatted with me this afternoon for almost an hour and gave me a free code to use their software again to right the situation.  Thank you Eliza.
