    amended return

    client filed 2011 tax return on April 15, 2012, do I have to amend by April 15, 2015? Received an amended K-1 for 2011 and just brought it to me.

    IRS states "Generally, to claim a refund, you must file Form 1040X within 3 years after the date you filed your original return or within 2 years after the date you paid the tax, whichever is later. Returns filed before the due date (without regard to extensions) are considered filed on the due date."

    The word "Generally", may leave open more research depending on the situation.

      you should amend and get it filed before 4/15/15. If that isn't possible, amend anyway to correct the return.
      Believe nothing you have not personally researched and verified.
