    It depends on the reason for amending.

    You print, sign, date and mail the federal amended return, Form 1040X, and any forms or schedules that changed from the original tax return that you filed. 

    Also include with the mailed amended return any Forms W-2 or 1099 that were added to the amended return and not included in the original return.

    If taxes are owed on the amended return you include a check or money order for the taxes owed with the mailed amended return.

    If you are receiving a tax refund from the amended return the IRS will mail you a refund check to the address entered on the amended return.

    generally just 1040-X, 1040, and all forms and schedules that changed.   include payment if you owe but you can also pay through IRS website - selected amended return and year. iF paying by enclosed check make sure your SSN, tax year and a phone number or e-mail address is on it.  use a method where you get proof of delivery since amended returns can only be mailed and be sure to read TT instructions as to proper mailing address.   the IRS may send you a bill for any penalties and interest if you owe
