does anybody know if an amended return has to go in today? My son got a W2 4 days after he filed his taxes back in late Feb. His return has been amended, but was just ready yesterday. Any answers appreciated.
Does he owe, or is he getting money back? If he owes, he would have to pay penalties and interest, if after the 15th. If he is getting a refund, he has 3yrs to file if he wants his money back (heard that last night on the news).
Here's the official story: If he owes, it must be filed today to avoid penalties. If they owe him on the amendment, then you have 3 years to file it.
