I Forgot My 1099-R
I did my taxes last night using TaxAct online. Overall, a painless process. But, I came into my office today and realized that I forgot to submit information from a 1099-R form. That's a distribution from a 401K plan that I held shortly while I was at The NewsMarket. It's not a lot of money (we're talking just a few hundred bucks), but I forgot to include it... and already submitted my taxes.
What can I do? I'm choosing to ignore it. If the IRS notices it, I'll man up and do what I have to do. But, here's to hoping that my refund is posted to my account with no questions asked.
By the way, unrelated, but I'm heading to Milan next week for business. What should I see while I'm there?

Hopefully no one from the IRS reads this blog :)
NewsMarket will submit the 1099 to the IRS and it may flag you for an audit. You could fill out a 1040-X real quick and send that in if you wanted to CYA.
Right now, I'm on hold with the IRS about my 83(b) election form and how I can attach that to my e-file. If you want me to ask them about your question :)
Were you able to efile and still attach a hardcopy of your 83(b)?
Did you use the 8453 form?
