Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Contrary to the advice given by Stevos555, you cannot and should not try to submit another return to correct the error.  Once your return has been electronically filed, you cannot submit any changes without amending the tax return.

 

That being said, your best course of action is to simply wait for the IRS to process the return you filed.  The error will be automatically corrected and your refund will be adjusted accordingly.  You will likely also receive a letter from the IRS to explain the change in your expected refund amount.
