First and foremost you must confirm your return was accepted.
Next, if you are saying you filed Married Filing Separately, then you do not need to amend. You must amend your tax return if you actually used the Single filing status which is not allowed for you or your wife. You can attempt to ament to see if the tax return has a balance due or refund. It's possible you may owe money back.
If you amend to file jointly, then your wife will just be added to your return and does not need to file separately.
The amended form will be ready later in the year. By using the link, Tax Forms Availability, you can continue to check to see when it's ready. If you decide you do need to amend use the steps in the link below.
Be sure to check your state rules as well.
