AMENDED RETURNS
If you file your income tax return and later become aware of any changes you must make to income, deductions, exemptions, or credits, you must file an amended (corrected) Louisiana return. You must use the correct form for the tax year being amended, mark an “X” in the “Amended Return” box on the face of the return, include an explanation of the change and a copy of the federal amended return, Federal Form 1040X, if one was filed. If you are amending your income tax return due to utilizing a Net Operating Loss (NOL) carryback, you must mark an “X” in the “Amended Return” box and also in the “NOL Carryback” box on the face of the return, include an explanation of the change and a copy of the federal amended return, Federal Form 1040X, if one was filed.
NOTE: Do not make any adjustments for refunds received or for payments made with the original return. This information is already on file
