Submitting the return for filing is just like dropping it into a mailbox - you can not get it back or change it.

Once you submit  and find that you need to make a change, you will have to wait until the IRS either accepts or rejects the return. If the return is rejected by the IRS, then you can make the necessary changes and resubmit it. If the return is accepted, then the only way to change it is to prepare an amended return and file it by mail.

The IRS won't start taking returns until January 23 so you have to WAIT until then (or soon after) for the IRS to Accept or reject it.  

So until you find out DO NOT change or touch anything in your return.  You may have to do an Amended return in late February.
