After you file

"If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 16 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return."

 

Ok so what if the return WAS e-filed? I can not just electronically amend? Will it still take 16 weeks if I do it through e-file again? I am sorry I am still so confused as what and when I am supposed to do this. I know I have to wait until the 1040X forms are available yes? Can I just e-file that form when it is available?
