After you file

Amended returns cannot be e-filed.  If you have prepared an amended return you have to print, sign and mail it.  However, the IRS is not even opening mailed returns at this time; if you mail it soon it will end up sitting in a pile of unopened mail in a trailer.  Sometime later in the year (we do not yet have a date) the IRS will start to allow e-filing of amended returns.  You might want to just wait for that.  You have three years to amend a return.
