Unused IRA contribution from 2008

Post by walsh »

My tax preparer forgot to include my IRA contribution in 2008. Should I file an amendment to both my Fed 2008 and Cali 2008 return. Or can I use it for 2011?

You cannoy use it now, of course. But it is probablt not too late to amend your 2008 return. What have you got to lose?
