    Forgot to fill line 75 on 1040, do I file an amended return?
    Hello,

    I missed filling line 75 on form 1040 (the amount overpaid by me). However, I did fill line 76 (a) (the amount from line 75, I wanted to be refunded) with the amount that should have gone on line 75.

    Will IRS be able to figure out that I am looking for a return or do I need to file an amended return? Please let me know.

    Thanks.

    No amendment is needed. The IRS WILL figure it out!
