Wait until your original return has been fully processed before you amend, and make sure you have saved a pdf of the original return before you amend. (If you do not save it as a pdf, the amended return will overwrite the original, and the original will be lost forever)

Use a mailing service like certified mail  to track so you will know it was received since you will have a long wait.

 

Do not expect quick results from amending. It can take four months or more for the IRS to process an amended return.
