Can I File An Amended Return For 2020 And Later File An Amended Return For 2019?

Can I file an amend return for 2020 first and after a while file an amend for 2019?

Hi. My expertise doesn't extend to income taxes, but I believe that you can file an amended tax return for any year that ended within 3 years 3 months and 15 days of when you file the amended return. You should definitely confirm that with the IRS, though.

Best, Jerry
