Addendum to 2007 taxes

I purchased my first new car in September, 2007 and paid the taxes. Several months after I filed my 2007 taxes, I was told I could have deducted the taxes paid on the car on my federal income taxes.

Is there a way to file and addendum to last year's taxes and claim the amount of about $1,000 when I file this year's taxes?

If you feel that you missed a credit, deduction or made a mistake on your tax return, all you have to do it file a 1040X. It's fairly simple to file and the IRS just wants to know what you originally filed for, what the change is and why you are making the change.

Here is the 1040X form:

Good luck!
