I put in the wrong property tax amount but I already e-file to IRS and California state (accepted but not processed yet). The correct amount would lower my taxes owe to California state. What should I do?

Once your returns are accepted, you cannot change your original return. You would have to amend both returns. Amended returns must be mailed.

It is suggested that you wait to amend until your returns are fully processed. The IRS & State do catch so mistakes & will notify you if they find them.
