The Electronic Postmark is for your original return.  The IRS does not support electronic filing of amended tax returns.

Print out and mail your amended return.

What if I can't make the payment, can I send in the Amended return without a check?

You can request that the IRS set up an installment payment plan, by filing Form 9465 - Installment Agreement Request with your amended return.  Please see the information in the additional answer, below
