I think I claim my son as a dependant

If you want to file an amended tax return after IRS accepted your tax return to claim a dependent, then you will want to wait until your original tax return is processed by the IRS. If you are receiving a refund, you should wait until the check is issued. Amended returns must be filed by mail.
