in After you file

My husband forgot a 1099 and now we have to amend. The freetaxusa website says to try at a later date. When is that?

    You should always wait until your original return has finished processing. If your original return has you getting a refund, wait until after you receive it. If you paid with your original return, check your IRS transcript to make sure processing is complete. But don't wait until after 4/15.

    Yeah I think you can amend as soon as your return is officially accepted/rejected

    Hello,

    We expect amendments to be available within the next week or so. (Amendments are usually available by mid-February) 

    Like JMSSGV said, we generally do not recommend that you amend before your return is done processing. This is because the IRS may catch the error and fix it themselves or reach out to you for more information. If you get your refund back and it hasn’t changed and you haven’t heard from the IRS, then it is safe to proceed with the amendment.
