| Dear Murk,
No need to panic! You can are entitled to file an amended tax return, and in fact you should file the amended tax return as soon as possible. This is because the IRS would be looking for the 1099-Misc on your tax return and would assess penalties and interest for underreporting of income.
Now, regarding your tax software program, I am not sure why the program did not save your file. That, I cannot help you or advice you on, perhaps you can call the software company and they can walk you through the process.
The amended return is a slightly complicated return and I would suggest that you approach a CPA to help you with this amended return. If you need help, you can also contact me via the private message and we can see what can be done.
Remember, you should take ACTION as soon as possible! |
