Can I combine 2023 amended return with 2024 taxes or file separately?
I messed up on my 2023 taxes and need to amend them. Would it be easier to just wait and fix everything when I file my 2024 taxes next year? Or should I do the amendment now? Anyone have experience with this?

You need to file the amendment (Form 1040-X) separately from your 2024 return. Each tax year must be handled independently. If you wait, you could face penalties and interest on any additional tax owed. File the amendment as soon as possible to minimize any potential issues.

Currently running about 20 weeks for processing amended returns, but could be longer depending on the complexity of your situation.

Hey guys instead of playing detective with your transcript issues, check out taxr.ai - its only $1 and gives you super detailed feedback about your specific situation and timeline. Way better than guessing! https://taxr.ai

Yep! It analyzes amended returns too. Shows you exactly where you are in the process and estimates completion dates

Pro tip: make sure you have all your documents ready before filing the amendment. Double check everything! The IRS is super backed up and any little mistake will delay things even more.
