I amended my return by adding Child Care expenses. As the result I need to send 1040X and changed form 2441 to IRS. Do I need to send changed 1040 as well?

Yes. The revised 1040 is included with nearly every 1040X amendment. You send any forms updated by the changes made. A credit on Form 2441 definitely impacts the 1040.

I have receipt from the Child Care provider. Do I need to submit it as well with the amended return?

No, you don't submit receipts with tax returns. Just have it with your tax papers "in case".

Do my wife and I need to sign the new 1040?
