Can Form 1040X be filed electronically? - To learn if Form 1040X be filed electronically.

---

Yes, Form 1040X can be filed electronically for the current tax year and two priors.

Anything older than the most current 3 taxyears must be paper filed.

If a taxpayer filed a paper 1040 return in Tax Year 2020, they must paper file the 1040X if they need to amend their originally filed return.

Beginning in Tax Year 2021, if they paper filed the 1040 return, the option to electronically file the amended (1040X) return is available.

The taxpayer will receive rejection IND-450 if they are required to paper file.
