Best thing to do is to file an amended return with the information that should have been on the original return and see the difference in the return would be (you would either owe or get another refund). You will need to print and mail your amended return in to the IRS. You should not try to
amend your return until the original return it has been fully processed and you
have received your refund or your payment has cleared.
Amended returns do not “catch up” to your original return and replace them;
they are processed as two separate returns.
Amended returns have to be printed and filed by mail. It can take the IRS
up to 12 weeks or longer to process them. If you are due a larger refund
than on your original return, your amended return should only show the
difference and you will receive a separate check for it. If you owe money
on your amended return, it will show only the new amount owed, you will have to
mail a check with the return. You can check the status of your amended return

After you prepared and filed your amended return you should contact the IRS and let them know you have filed an amended return so they can updated your files and be on the lookout for that return.
