Amended Returns
Purpose: Use a 2013 Form CT-1040X to amend a previously-fi led 2013 Connecticut income tax return for individuals. Visit the DRS
Taxpayer Service Center (TSC) at to fi le Form CT-1040X online.
If Form CT-1040X is fi led to have an overpayment of Connecticut income tax refunded or credited, it must be fi led before the Connecticut
statute of limitations expires. Generally, the Connecticut statute of limitations for refunding or crediting any Connecticut income tax
overpayment expires three years after the due date of the return, but if a timely request for an extension of time to fi le a return was fi led, the
statute of limitations expires three years after the extended due date of the return or three years after the date of fi ling the return, whichever
is earlier. If you were required to fi le an amended return, but failed to do so, a penalty may be imposed. Interest will also be assessed on
any additional Connecticut income tax not paid on or before the due date. See Interest and Penalties on Page 12.
