Correcting employment tax forms

The IRS has developed specific forms, see correcting employment tax forms, to correct errors on a previously filed employment tax return. These forms correspond and relate line-by-line to the employment tax return they are correcting. However, there is no specific form to correct a Form 940. Taxpayers use a Form 940 for correcting a previously filed return by checking the amended return box in the top right corner of the Form 940.
