  • Ensure accuracy by referencing the taxpayer’s original Form 1040 before making any changes.


Final Notes

✔️ If the original return was e-filed and accepted through ProWeb, the system will pre-fill the Original column for convenience.
✔️ If manual entry is required, carefully transfer the amounts from the original return to avoid discrepancies.
✔️ Use the built-in help feature for additional guidance on where to locate the necessary amounts.
