If the child's SSN has already been used on a tax return for 2019 then your GF's amended return will not catch up in the system this year. If you are claiming the child then the only way for you to file is to print, sign and mail your own return.
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
