(c) A taxpayer may claim on an amended personal property tax return any adjustment or exemption that would have been allowable as if the adjustment or exemption had been claimed on the original personal property return. (d) A taxpayer must file the amended return on the same form prescribed by the department for the filing of an original personal property return, indicating that it is amended in a conspicuous place on the front of the return. The amended personal property return must be completed and filed with the township assessor, if any, or county assessor in the same manner as is required for the original personal property return. (e) Except as provided in this article, an amended return remains subject to the review and adjustment of assessing officials in the same manner as original personal property returns.

If the taxpayer wishes to correct an error made by the taxpayer on the taxpayer's personal property tax return, the taxpayer must instead file an amended personal property tax return under IC 6-1.1-3-7.5.
