Several years ago, the National Society of Accountants came out with its top 10 list of the reasons why people should hire a professional tax preparer instead of preparing their own returns. The number one reason? A tax professional can find significant deductions or tax credits a taxpayer may have missed.<\/p>\n

Since the IRS provides taxpayers up to three years to file amended returns, offering to take a look at a new client\u2019s prior returns, and possibly completing an amended return as a \u201csecond look\u201d service, is a great way to expand your business, bring in new customers and build customer loyalty.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re concerned about the time that it takes to enter the 1040x in Intuit\u00ae ProConnect\u2122 ProSeries<\/a>\u00ae, don\u2019t worry! Here are nine steps to complete an amended return in ProSeries with only the paper copy:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open a new return.<\/li>\n
  2. Enter the taxpayer and (or) spouse information on the Federal Information Worksheet.<\/li>\n
  3. Select \u201cForms\u201d from the \u201cForms\u201d dropdown menu.<\/li>\n
  4. Type “X” and press \u201center\u201d to open Form 1040X.<\/li>\n
  5. Enter the correct calendar year for Form 1040X.<\/li>\n
  6. Complete the necessary fields on Form 1040X.<\/li>\n
  7. Enter the amounts originally reported for the chosen year in \u201cColumn A.\u201d<\/li>\n
  8. Enter the correct amount in \u201cColumn C\u201d or on the associated worksheets.<\/li>\n
  9. ProSeries will compute the amount for \u201cColumn B.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \"PSReturn\"<\/p>\n

    Keep in mind that you can use the refund monitor feature to review the amended refund\/federal tax due. Complete the remaining sections as needed and print out the return, but do not forget to complete the \u201cExplanation of Changes.\u201d<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n
