After you file

Did you go to the end and hit the big orange Transmit Returns Now button and file it?

 

DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING YET!  WAIT.  If you did change it then put it Back.

 

You cannot change or add anything on the return that you just e-filed.  It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox.

 

Now you have to wait until the IRS either rejects or accepts your return after Jan 27 when the irs starts processing returns.  If your return is Rejected you can go back into your account and fix it, then resubmit it.

 

But if the IRS Accepts your return you have to wait even longer for the IRS to fully process your return and you get the first Refund.  You will still have to pay the tax due if you owe on it. THEN you can prepare an amended tax return and mail it in.
