Hi there. My e-filed return was rejected because my parents incorrectly claimed me as a dependent on their returns. Their amendment was processed, but I'm still rejected?

My parents incorrectly filed their return this year claiming me as a dependent. However, I have brought this error to their attention, and they have filed an amendment to remove me as a dependent. Their amendment has since been processed, but I was still given error code R0000-902-01, "A tax return has already been filed with the IRS using the same SSN or ITIN."

What should I do? Should I wait longer before trying to e-file again? Will I be required to mail in my return physically? Should I try to contact the IRS and if so, how should I do so considering the local offices are closed due to COVID-19?
