If you need to change or amend an accepted Arkansas State Income Tax Return for the 2024 or previous Tax Year, you need to complete Form AR1000F (residents) or Form AR1000NR (nonresidents and part-year residents). Forms AR1000F and AR1000NR are Forms used for the Tax Returna and Tax Amendment. You can prepare a current Tax Year (2024) Arkansas Tax Amendment on eFile.com, however you cannot submit it electronically, you must mail it in.For all previous AR Tax Years complete form AR1000F or form AR1000NR, see below by Tax Year. In comparison, the IRS requires a different Form - Form 1040X - to amend an IRS return (do not use Form 1040 for an IRS Amendment).
The IRS might send you a notification to change an error on your Return, or you might have discovered an error. If you or the IRS amended or changed one of your IRS Tax Return(s), the IRS will report this to the Arkansas Tax Agency, thus you should file an Arkansas Amendment within one year.
