Although you can prepare an amendment online, it is not possible to e-file an amendment. The IRS does not allow amendments to be submitted electronically; amended returns must be mailed.
Wait for your original return to be accepted by the IRS before printing, signing, and mailing your amended return.
If you owe, include a check or money order for taxes owed when you mail your amendment. You can also pay any federal taxes due at www.irs.gov/payments.
You can track your amended return 3 weeks after you mail your amendment using the IRS tracking system. See FAQ below to track your amended return.
