I filed paper copy. My original TT file has schedule A. IRS used CP501 to apply standard deduction in place of itemized deduction and accepted that return charging more taxes. They basically ignored that a schedule A was sent in.

Did the IRS say what they changed on your Schedule A to make it less than the Standard Deduction? I would check your IRS online account or call them to find out what they changed.
I guess to amend you would first have to amend to match the IRS. Like take out some deductions or say you want to take the Standard Deduction. Or just change your original return to match the IRS. Be careful not to file this new return. Don't efile it. Say you want to mail it, since you mailed the original return.
BUT first be sure to save a copy of your original return pdf file and .tax2024 file. THEN you can amend to add the schedule A back in.
First be sure to save your original return with another name so the amended return doesn't overwrite it and you can start over if it gets messed up. Go up to File-Save As and give it another name like add Original or FINAL to it.
