You will need to mail your amended return; you can not e-file it. You need only attach the forms that support the changes that you've made to your tax return as reflected on the 1040-X.
It can take the IRS up to 12 weeks or longer to process them. If you are due a larger refund than on your original return, your amended return should only show the difference and you will receive a separate check for it. If you owe money on your amended return, it will show only the new amount owed, you will have to mail a check with the return. Three weeks after you mailed your amendment, you can start tracking its progress at the IRS Where's My Amended Return? site.
