When I send in my CA amended return, do I attach the 1040x or the original 1040 return?

Attach to Form 540X:
Revised California tax return, including all revised forms and schedules.

Federal schedules if you made a change to your federal tax return.
Documents supporting each change, such as corrected W
-2s, 1099s,
K-1s, escrow statements, court documents, contracts, etc.

Do I need to include my W-2 if all I changed was my itemized deductions?

@Danielus

Can you please clarify your questions? 

Are you asking how to remove Earned Income Credit from a return?

Form 1040-EZ hasn’t been a valid tax form since tax year 2017.  What is the year of the tax return you want to amend?
