If the State of West Virginia automatically recalculated and adjusted your return without the credit, this may be why the amounts on your WV online account do not match your tax documents.
Per the state's website, however, you must file a West Virginia amended return if any of the following conditions occur:
- To correct a previously filed return; or
- You filed an amended federal income tax return and that change affected your West Virginia tax liability; or
- The Internal Revenue Service made any changes to your federal return (i.e., change in federal adjusted gross income, change in exemptions, etc.).
Since you need to amend your return, you can do so by following the instructions on the page How do I amend my state tax return? Once you remove the credit you were ineligible for, your taxes will be recalculated and your amended IT-140 should reflect the numbers that agree with your WV online account.
