MISSOURI CORPORATION INCOME TAX AMENDED RETURN (FORM MO-1120X)
INSTRUCTIONS – FOR TAX YEARS 1992 AND PRIOR
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Purpose of Form – Use Form MO-1120X to correct Missouri Form 20 or Form MO-1120, Corporation Income Tax Return, for tax years 1992 and
prior, as you originally filed it or as it was later adjusted by an amended return or an examination. Separate Form MO-1120Xs must be completed
for each reason or for each loss year carryback. For example, a 1990 loss and a 1991 loss must each be filed on a separate Form MO-1120X.
For tax years beginning January 1, 1993, use the Form MO-1120 from the tax year for which you are amending your taxes. For
example, if amending taxes for the 1993 tax year, you would do so on a 1993 MO-1120.
When to File – File Form MO-1120X only after the corporation has filed its original return. If the Federal return was also amended, please
attach a copy of Federal Form 1120X, 1139, Revenue Agent’s Report (4549A, 4549B, 5278 and any separate company schedules), or any
other Federal amended form. If a separate corporation loss occurred, attach a copy of page 1 of the proforma Federal Form 1120 and the
consolidated Federal Form 1120 for the loss year. Form MO-1120X is required to be filed within 90 days after the Federal Form 1120X is filed
or Notice of Final Determination (Section 143.601, RSMo).
Complete Part 1 when there is a loss carryback and/or credit carryback. A loss would include a net operating loss, capital loss, or product
liability loss. A taxpayer having a 1992 loss carryback and having paid Missouri income tax for 1989, 1990, or 1991 should file amended
returns to the extent the carryback is applied to those years. A loss carryback is required to be filed by the 15th day of the 39th month
following the end of the loss year (Section 143.801.6, RSMo).
Signature – A corporation income tax return is not considered valid unless it is signed. All required information must be supplied when applic-
able, and a check in the full amount must accompany the return when a tax due is indicated.
When applicable, overpayments of interest, penalty or addition to tax will be refunded. An amended return filed due to a net operating loss will
not result in the refund of any previously charged interest, penalty or addition to tax, nor will it result in the abatement of the interest, penalty
or addition to tax if the original tax amount has not been paid (Section 143.811.5, RSMo).
