How to File an Arizona Tax Amendment

If you need to change or amend an accepted Arizona state Income Tax Return for the 2024 or previous Tax Year you need to complete Form 140X. Form 140X is a Form used for the Tax Amendment. You can prepare an Arizona Tax Amendment Form for the current Tax Year (2024) on eFile.com, however you can not file it electronically, you must mail it in. For all previous AR Tax Years complete form 140x, see below by Tax Year. In comparison, the IRS requires a different Form - Form 1040X -to amend an IRS return (do not use Form 1040 for an IRS Amendment).

The IRS might send you a notification to change an error on your Return, or you might have discovered an error. If you or the IRS amended or changed one of your IRS Tax Return(s), the IRS will report this to the Alabama Tax Agency, thus you should file an Alabama Tax Amendment within one year.
