You cannot add or change, or retrieve a return that has been filed, even if it is in progress.  The IRS has not given any instructions for tax payers who put in the wrong Recovery Rebate Credit, or receive the stimulus money after they filed.  The IRS may adjust your return, if they do they will send you a letter.  For now, just wait & see.
