Forgot to file that I am married

Since you've already filed your tax return you'll have to wait until you know if your return has been accepted or rejected, probably near the end of February. If it's rejected you can modify it to fix the error and then e-file it again (after correcting other errors). However, if it's accepted then you'll have to file an amended tax return (1040-X), but only after your original tax return has been processed by the IRS. Here are the instructions for filing an amended tax return:

Answers are correct to the best of my ability but do not constitute legal or tax advice.
