If an amended return is based on a non-business bad debt or worthless security how many years (from the original due dateof the return) does a taxpayer have to file the amended return?

This is going to depend on the exact situation of the amendment. Firstly, a non-business bad debt is not deductible for income tax purposes. The second item, you list is a worthless security, which is deductible but limited to the offset of your capital gains and a limited amount of deduction above this amount. The security must be a publicly traded security in order to take a loss on the security. In order to claim a refund on any amended individual return, you have the current year plus two prior years if they are filed within two years of the original due date. For instance, say you neglected to file an allowable loss on your 2015 tax return. You would have two years from April 15th of 2016 to file an amendment or two years from October 15th of 2016 if you had filed a timely extension request for that tax year.

How many years do you have to keep your tax returns?

The length of time you should keep a document depends on the action, expense, or event the document records. Generally, you must keep your records that support an item of income or deductions on a tax return until the period of limitations for that return runs out. The period of limitations is the period of time in which you can amend your tax return to claim a credit or refund, or that the IRS can assess additional tax. The below information contains the periods of limitations that apply to income tax returns. Unless otherwise stated, the years refer to the period after the return was filed. Returns filed before the due date are treated as filed on the due date. Note: Keep copies of your filed tax returns. They help in preparing future tax returns and making computations if you file an amended return.
