How long do you have to file an amended tax return?

Generally, you must file Form 1040X within three years from the date you filed your original return or within two years from the date you paid the tax, whichever is later. For Example: April 15 2014 - for a 2010 return filed April 15 2011.


Can your use a W-2 form from three years ago if you didn't file the job on your tax return?

If you already have filed a tax return for that previous year, then you should amend your original return to correct that omission. Form 1040X is Amended U.S. Individual Income Return. You're allowed to amend 3 years after the date of filing your original return or two years after the date of paying taxes, if any, whichever is later. If you haven't filed a return for that year and weren't required to file, then you should file if tax was withheld to receive a refund of that tax.


How long do you have to refile Federal taxes if you realized you've made a mistake on a past return?

You have two years from the date you submitted your original tax return to submit an amended return.More specifically, as stated on the TurboTax website, "You can file an amended return within 3 years of the date you filed the original return or within 2 years of the date on which you paid the tax due on the return, whichever is later."

Can you still file 2007 taxes?

Yes you can file your 2007 this year along with your 2008. I have had clients that have to me with 4-6 years of taxes that had not been filed [basically they were under pressure from the IRS to file those returns]. Also, if you had a refund or a rebate, why let the Government keep it. Always file your return in a timely manner, it keeps those headaches down from trying to deal with it later. Do not procrastinate! If you owed, you will still owe, so it's better to take care of it now than later. Be sure you have accounted for ALL your deductions to have a good return. Good Luck!
