You must file an amended Minnesota return on Form M1X if any of these apply:
- An error is discovered on your client’s Minnesota return
- The IRS made changes to your client’s federal return
- You amend your client’s federal return
What should I know about amending Minnesota returns?
- Each tax year has its own amended tax return form.
- Generally, your clients must file amended returns within 3½ years of the due date of the original return.
- If your client filed as Married Filing Jointly, you cannot change the filing status to Married Filing Separately after the return’s due date.
- If changes require an additional schedule or form, or if a schedule or form changes, attach it to the amended return.
- If both the original and amended returns result in a refund, wait until your client gets their original refund before filing the amended return.
- Review our Amending a Return in Special Circumstances page if your client is divorced or filing a protective claim.
