After you file

The IRS may contact you about it. If so, just explain what happened. If they don't contact you, please just give them a call at 800 829 1040 when they reopen and explain the mistake. I promise, you are not the only one who has done this--it's just an honest mistake. It has been very common. The IRS has made no mention whatsoever on their site about penalties for people who accidentally file the non-filer form after filing a regular return, so there is no need to worry at this point.
