Taxpayers now have more options to correct, amend returns

More forms can now be amended electronically, including corrections to the Form 1040-NR, U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return; Forms 1040-SS, U.S. Self-Employment Tax Return (Including the Additional Child Tax Credit for Bona Fide Residents of Puerto Rico); and Forms 1040-PR, Self-Employment Tax Return – Puerto Rico. Additionally, a new, electronic checkbox has been added for Forms 1040/1040-SR, 1040-NR and 1040-SS/1040-PR to indicate that a superseding return is being filed electronically. A superseded return is one that is filed after the originally filed return but submitted before the due date, including extensions. This news release is also available in Spanish and Simplified Chinese.
