I understand that the IRS (and many states) consider any over or under-payment of less than $100 to be de minimis. << ================================================== ===== > << The foregoing is intended for educational purposes only > << and does NOT constitute legal OR professional advice. > << > << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org. > << Copyright (2006) - All rights reserved. > << ================================================== ===== > |

| After I filed my 2005 federal return, I realized that I had forgotten to include one of my 1099-INT interest amounts in the return. This obviously changes my AGI, but because the amount is small (around $10), my tax refund amount is unchanged. Do I still need to file an amended return for this extra income?
