Do both returns need to be amended? Remove her from his return then file her separtely as single? (He had another dependent to maintain his HOH status.)

That was two Presidents ago.  I suppose this is the weekend to be considering redemption and forgiveness, but things that happened in the Before Times should stay there . . . just my opinion.

I have to ask.

How, in April 2021, does one discover they had $9K previously unknown income in 2016?

The more I know the more I don’t know.
