Electronic Filers

Most software vendors have updated their products to account for the unemployment exclusion. E-filing your amended return will ensure greater accuracy and faster processing times.
Paper Filers
If you paper file your amended return, here are some helpful reminders:

- Include schedule AMD which captures the reason why you are amending the return. To complete properly, check Box N and on line 8 "Explanation of changes", please write "Federal Unemployment Exclusion".
