My tax preparer of over 40 years told me that I did not qualify for the $250 Government Retiree Tax Credit because I do not receive social security. I receive a retired teacher pension. He completed my and my husband's taxes and I sent it in. Then I discovered that I do qualify for the $250 credit and need to file an amended form. (My husband did receive the $250) I phoned my tax preparer but he is not returning my calls. I looked on the net and found that I need to file 1040x but am unsure exactly how to fill it out, and everything I need to send in.
I would so much appreciate any advice and help someone could offer.
Thanks!
