Filed wrong what to do?

So I made my first mistake. I accidentally put that I had both a roth ira and a roth 401k. I only had a 401k so Instead of only investing 574 total. It actually doubled it as 1148 dollars. What do I do now? Will the irs catch this and fix it? Kind of freaking out here since it's a tax break

Your pending returns can not be changed. If your return is accepted you will get an email. If the return is rejected the e-mail will tell you what to correct and you can make changes before e-filing again. Amend to change an accepted return after you get your refund. Instructions below. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/amending/help/how-to-amend-change-or-correct-a-return-you-already-...

It might be that you got a higher Retirement Savings Credit (shown on line 4 of Schedule 3) because you entered an IRA Roth contribution.

 

If you did and your return has been accepted then you will have to amend your tax return (as ee-ea mentions).  But please wait until your refund or payment is processed. Please be aware that you can e-file your 2022 amended federal tax return, but states may require amendments to be printed and filed by mail. Please see How to amend a tax return for instructions.
